Beautiful people of Earth I sing this for you
Refugees welcome here I've seen it and its true
Look what we do with the grapes rusting on the vine
And a young man on the Gaza strip paints a window in the wall
And I see it in defiant eyes the best of us all
On the echoes of a dying man I hear a baby cry
It's a wonderful wonderful wonderful
Wonderful life
And the dancers in silk skirts come bring us all on
And the boys touch the moon and the girls call em home
Daddy's all muddy been digging up mines on the road
And the artists make love to your soul all battered and boozed
Share with me the dignity of people with nothing more to lose
Let your need be for love never husband or wife
And it's a wonderful wonderful wonderful
Wonderful life
We made love in the forest and they serve great espresso downtown
The people open borders when a little Syrian boy drown
From bombs on Parisian streets we light our monuments for you
Oh beautiful woman I'll never forget what you said
Don't lay flowers upon my grave lay 'em on my bed
And on the promise the sun will come again put out the light
It's a wonderful wonderful wonderful
Wonderful life
