The Onion Song

The world is just a great big onion
And pain and fear are the spice that make you cry, oh baby
And the only way to get rid of this great big onion
Is to plant love seeds until it dies, uh huh

Hey world, we got a great big job to do
Yeah, we need you
And everybody who loves true
Oh, you know we got to clean up this place
And reach for a higher goal, yeah, yes we do now
We gotta be headstrong, know ‘bout the right and the wrong
And make a lot more happy songs, oh baby

The world is just a great big onion
And I don’t care if the face people like to wear
And the only way to get rid of this great big onion
Every single soul’s got to do their share, uh huh

So come on, let’s knock on every door
Tell them love is the answer
Whether they’re rich or poor, oh yeah
Now we don’t care what you do
How you look or your status plain, baby
Because brothers and sisters, from now on
Is gonna be everyone’s name, oh

The world is just a great big onion
And pain and fear are the spices that make you cry
And the only way to get rid of this great big onion
Is to plant love seeds, now everybody got to plant love seeds
Come on and plant love seeds until it dies
The world is just a great big onion
