A child is born, and a mama's torn 
About the life that it's bound to live 
A sun and moon and a modest home 
Is all they asking the Lord to give 
But politics and big events they never seem to notice the little guy 
So make a plan or simply hold a hand but don't ever be a passer by 

Tolerance or violence and the whole world go to war 
Is one enough or is one too many 
Before we say, "No More" 
Could you ever love a pot of gold? 
Could you ever love another lonely soul? 
Could you ever find a love that was oceans wide? 
Could you ever find love in another stranger's eyes? 

Oh, give a little, 
Tolerance, tolerance 
We need you more and more 
So lend a hand or simply hold a friend 
That's in need of a life support 
Draw a picture, share a whisper 
Anyway that you can rise above 
And when the end is near who is gonna volunteer 
To be the last one to die for love 

Tolerance or violence and the whole world go to war 
Is one enough or is one too many 
Before we say, "No More" 
No more, no more, no more, no more
