Tomorrow Today Songtext
von Al Jarreau

Chant:
We need a think tank I′m thinking
We need a think tank I'm thinking

Verse 1:
With tender smile, we bless a child
with love and light, and patron saint.
Don′t let them cry, that we denied
tomorrow's child today.

Verse 2:
The hurt, the need, to heal, to feed
They linger near the marketplace.
Will we deny, or compromise
tomorrow's child today?

Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama Papa thinkin′ ′bout tomorrow today


Verse 3:
As rivers roar, the eagles soar
this ancient lore of rightful place.
Do we ignore, or save them for
Tomorrow's child today?

Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-ay
Mama Papa thinkin′ 'bout:

Chorus:
Tomorrow today---Is anybody thinkin′ 'bout
Tomorrow today---Is anybody thinkin′ 'bout

Verse: Instrumental

Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
