Sunday, Maybe Someday (lyrics)

If only those in first class rode
Do you think there would be no security provisions?
If we only drove the biggest cars on the road
Do you think there would be no more collisions?
If each of us toiled to drill our own oil
Do you think there would be less pollution?
If everyone held a gun
Do you really think there would be less shooting?

But maybe if we only had some food
But maybe if we only had somewhere safe to go home to
Then maybe we could see me for me and you for you
Maybe we don’t have to fight tonight

If those under duress would only dress up their best
Do you think that the rest would respect them easily?
If everyone would only speak their mind
Do you think we would all be lined up to speak equally?
If everyone had to scream to be heard
Do you think listeners would still be so willing?
If everyone held a gun
Do you really think there would be less killing?

But maybe if we only had some food
But maybe if we only had somewhere safe to go home to
Then maybe we could see me for me and you for you
Maybe we don’t have to fight tonight

If everyone had their own hammer and nails
Do you think there’d be fewer sore thumbs?
If everyone agreed, what a hero needs to believe
Do you think there’d not be a one left unsung?
If everyone knows the nuclear codes
Do you think it will stop people dying?
Even if they say we’re too young and naive
Even if there’s no one around who agrees
Even if peace seems out of our reach
That doesn’t mean we should stop trying

But maybe if we only had some food
But maybe if we only had somewhere safe to go home to
Then maybe we could see me for me and you for you
Maybe we don’t have to fight tonight

But maybe we could share our food
And maybe if we could together make a safe place to
Finally see me for me and see you for you
We don’t have to fight

Maybe, we could give peace a try
Maybe, we could give peace a try
Maybe, we could give peace a try

If we’d given peace a try
Maybe you’d still be alive
