Five for Fighting’s “World” is yet another masterpiece from their incredible art collection of songs featuring unforgettable works such as “100 years”, “The Riddle”, “Superman” and more. I first caught it in a Sear’s commercial and knew it was John Ondrasik’s voice. I did a quick search on Yahoo Answers and found out the name of this song and the video on YouTube.
What better way to start the new year than with a song like this? “What kind of world do you want?” I especially love the part “History starts NOW”. How true. Every historical or monumental achievement began the moment someone decided to take action. Thoughts without action are powerless. We need to put all of our plans and goals in motion right now and change not only our lives but perhaps the world as well.

“World”
Got a package full of Wishes
A Time machine, a Magic Wand
A Globe made out of Gold
No Instructions or Commandments
Laws of Gravity or
Indecisions to uphold
Printed on the box I see
A.C.M.E.’s Build-a-World-to-be
Take a chance – Grab a piece
Help me to believe it
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything
Let’s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now…
Should there be people or peoples
Money, Funny pedestals for Fools who never pay
Raise your Army – Choose your Steeple
Don’t be shy, the satellites can look the other way
Lose the Earthquakes – Keep the Faults
Fill the oceans without the salt
Let every Man own his own Hand
What kind of world do you want
Think Anything
Let’s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now…
Sunlight’s on the Bridge
Sunlight’s on the Way
Tomorrow’s Calling
There’s more to this than Love
What Kind of world do you want
What Kind of world do you want
What Kind of world do you want
Think Anything
Let’s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
History Starts Now
Be careful what you wish for
Start Now
