[Verse 1: Robert Palmer & Andy Taylor]
All babies together
Ev'ry one a seed
Half of us are satisfied
The other half of us in need
Love's bountiful in us
Tarnished by our greed
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

[Refrain: Chorus]
Harvest for the world

[Verse 2: Robert Palmer]
A nations planted
So concerned with gain
As the seasons come and go, we won't wait in vain
Far too many, feelin' the strain
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

[Refrain: Chorus]
Harvest for the world

[Bridge: Chorus]
A harvest, a harvest
A harvest, a harvest
A harvest, a harvest
A harvest, a harvest
[Refrain: Chorus]
Harvest for the world

[Verse 3: Robert Palmer & Andy Taylor]
Dress me up for battle
When all I want is peace
Those of us who pay the price
Come home with the least
And nation after nation, tuning into beasts
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

[Coda: Robert Palmer, (Chorus)]
(Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
This will be the (Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
This will be the (Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
