21st Century by Steve Laffy ©
Verse 1
When I stop and look around the place,
So much trouble, in the human race.
So many people, so much pain.
Now’s the time, to try again.
I know a new way can be found,
Now two thousand’s come around
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
Verse 2
When will there be justice around the world.
Peace and freedom for every boy and girl.
Enough clothes to wear, enough food to eat.
Let there be dancing and singing in the street.
Lets hope these things will all be found
Now two thousand’s come around
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
S O L O S
Verse 3
No more fighting, no more war
There’s better things, worth living for.
No more hunger, no more hate.
Let's do it now, before it gets too late.
Let’s learn to smile instead of frown
Now two thousand’s come around
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
Lets make life better in the 21st Century
D R U M M I N G B R E A K
Verse 4
Let the children live and grow,
Let the farmer reap and sow.
Let the preacher man, sing his hymn,
Everybody, learn to sing.
Let’s hear that magic sound,
Now two thousand’s come around
Lets make life better in the 21st Century Repeat till end

You’re Not Alone By Steve Laffy
VERSE 1
When you feel you’ve got the blues
Got nothing else to loose, don’t worry
Or when you feel you’re all alone.
So very far from home, don’t worry
If Lady Luck has passed you by
And you feel you’re gonna cry, don’t worry
When everything goes wrong
Just listen to my song, please don’t worry
CHORUS
You’re not a, you’re not alone in this world.
You’re not a, you’re not alone in this world
You’re not alone ( backing )....when you're in my world
You’re not alone ( backing )... yeh, yeh, yeah
You’re not alone ( backing )... when you're in my world.. .you’re not alone
VERSE 2
When trouble comes along
And all you’re money's gone, don’t worry
When you’re feeling down,
And you’re friends are messing round, don’t worry
When you feel that hope has gone,
And it’s hard to carry on, don’t worry
When everything goes wrong
Just listen to my song, don’t worry
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
When trouble comes around, knocks right on your door
Tries to put you down, right down on the floor
Try not to worry babe, don’t let it get you down.
‘Cause happiness is coming around
REPEAT CHORUS - S O L O S VOCAL BACK IN WITH CHORUS
CHORUS
You’re not alone, when you're in my world (times 4 last time)
