Testo The Onion Song
[Both:] The world is just a great big onion
[MG:] & pain & fear are the spices that make you cry
[Both:] Oh, & the only way to get rid of this great big onion
[VS:] Is to plant love seeds until it dies, uh huh
[MG:] Hey world! We got a great big job to do
Yeah, we need you
& everybody who loves truth Don't you know we've got to clean up this place
& reach far high & oh yeah
[VS:] Yes we do
We gotta be headstrong about rightin' the wrong
& make a mountain of happy souls, oh; [MG:] Oh
