OMG. Just heard this on the car radio. First time in ages. Perfect for today!

Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes with the immortal Teddy Pendergrass on Soul Train in 1975.

Wake up everybody no more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin' time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
There is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach 'em the very best you can.

Chorus
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.

Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgment Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away.
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time.

Repeat Chorus

[Oregone]

1. "No more backward thinkin' time for thinkin' ahead"

Beautiful song about Daylight Savings Time. Makes me cry every time I hear it this time of year (but I think it was written about the Spring adjustment).

2. Awww...I hear that one just about every day.

It's been on "heavy rotation" in my iPod forever. But what a perfectly appropriate message for right now!
