When You Gonna Learn Songtext
von Jamiroquai

Yeah, yeah, have you heard the news today?
People right across the world
Are pledging they will play the game
Victims of the modern world
Circumstance has brought us here
Armageddon′s come too near
Too, too near now

Foresight is the only key
To save our children's destiny
The consequences are so grave
So, so grave now
The hypocrites we are their slaves
So my friends to stop the end
On each other we depend
Oh, we depend


Mountain high and river deep
Stop it goin′ on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh, people
Stop it goin' on

Yeah, yeah, have you heard the news today?
Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant
Well don′t talk about quantity
′Cause there's no fish left in the sea
Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was
And you′d better play it nature's way
Or she will take it all away

And don′t try and tell me you know more than her 'bout right from wrong
Oh you′ve upset the balance man
Done the only thing you can
Now my life is in your hands

Mountain high and river deep
Oh yeah
We've gotta stop it goin' on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh, people
Stop it goin′ on


Mountain high and river deep, yeah
We′ve gotta stop it goin' on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh, people
Stop it goin′ on
Greedy men will fade away yeah, yeah, yeah
When we stop it goin' on

I know it′s got to be that way
Oh, people
Stop it goin' on
I′m asking
Oh, when you gonna learn?
To stop it goin' on?
Now when you gonna learn?

To stop it goin' on?
Now when you gonna learn?
To stop it goin′ on?
Oh when you gonna learn?
To stop it goin′ on?
