SHOVELS & ROPE
"Save The World"
(Shovels & Rope)

When you're caught in the wave of a terrible tide
Suddenly you're struggling to stay astride
So you calm your hands, and you cool your mind
And then you wake up happy on the other side

Honey, you got what it takes
You got what it takes
To save the world

When there is trouble you cannot command
Maybe it's God trying to guide your hand
So you shine a little light upon where you stand
So that you can genuinely understand

Honey, you got what it takes
You got what it takes
To save the world

Miracles happen
They happen every day
We don't know why
I guess we're just lucky that way

A homeless man with no place to sleep
Woke up to find warm boots on his feet
And a warm cup of coffee with sugar and cream
Courtesy of the ol' NYPD

Oh, you got what it takes
You got what it takes
To save the world

You got what it takes
You got what it takes
To save the world

You got what it takes
You got what it takes
You got what it takes
You got what it takes
To save the world
