[Intro: Sting]
~#**************#~
The time has come, the Walrus said
~#**************#~
To talk of many things
~#**************#~
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
~#**************#~
Of cabbages and kings
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Shaggy]
~#**************#~
Life a the greatest gift given to humanity
~#**************#~
Surround yourself with a lot a positive energy
~#**************#~
Yuh cant buy it even if yuh have whole heap a money
~#**************#~
And dats why we spread love ina the community
~#**************#~
Yuh coulda be small man or a celebrity
~#**************#~
Yuh coulda live uptown or di inner city
~#**************#~
We need a world full peace and serenity
~#**************#~
Sting come sing out fi everybody
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Sting]
~#**************#~
The time has come, as Shaggy said
~#**************#~
To talk of many things
~#**************#~
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
~#**************#~
Of cabbages and kings
~#**************#~
The planets turn in retrograde
~#**************#~
The moon seems to have fled
~#**************#~
The world is spinning upside down
~#**************#~
And landed on its head
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Sting]
~#**************#~
Just one lifetime
~#**************#~
And theres only one, yes theres only one
~#**************#~
Just one life to live
~#**************#~
Assuming that well make it
~#**************#~
Weve no choice but to take it
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Sting]
~#**************#~
Im with you, the Walrus said
~#**************#~
Well dress for heavy weather
~#**************#~
Whatevers on the road ahead
~#**************#~
Were in this now together
~#**************#~
We thought wed make a run for it
~#**************#~
Not knowing where were headed
~#**************#~
We packed the car with both our bags
~#**************#~
And filled her up unleaded
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Sting]
~#**************#~
Just one lifetime
~#**************#~
And theres only one, yes theres only one
~#**************#~
Just one life to live
~#**************#~
Assuming that well make it
~#**************#~
Weve no choice but to take it
~#**************#~
[Verse 4: Shaggy]
~#**************#~
Come make we take a page out a di book of life
~#**************#~
Leggo negativity and do whats right
~#**************#~
We no longer need fi a fuss or fight
~#**************#~
Unite the world and show dem di right
~#**************#~
Dis generation a set a new trend
~#**************#~
Replace di word enemy wid friend
~#**************#~
Leaders a di world these rules cant bend
~#**************#~
Dis a di message we a send to dem
~#**************#~
[Verse 5: Sting]
~#**************#~
The time had come, a reckoning
~#**************#~
We all knew it was coming
~#**************#~
We headed North on empty roads
~#**************#~
The engine gently humming
~#**************#~
The Walrus smoked a cigarette
~#**************#~
He claimed it was his last
~#**************#~
No signs of life, no gas, no food
~#**************#~
In all the empty towns we passed
~#**************#~
All we have is me and you
~#**************#~
It has to be enough
~#**************#~
Ive got your back and youve got mine
~#**************#~
If the going it gets rough
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Sting]
~#**************#~
Just one lifetime
~#**************#~
And theres only one, yes theres only one
~#**************#~
Just one life to live
~#**************#~
Assuming that well make it
~#**************#~
Weve no choice but to take it
~#**************#~
[Outro: Sting]
~#**************#~
The time has come, the Walrus said
~#**************#~
To talk of many things
~#**************#~
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
~#**************#~
Of cabbages and kings
