Lyrics

I saw my neighbor walking down the street, there was trouble in the air.
Simply said she had a problem, a small thing, that could? a been handled in a kind easy way
Instead with strictness and rigidity she was told to comply she was told to comply
It didn?t work out and now she?ll move, people with power blew it real bad
CHORUS Common sense is getting scarcer leaving minds and hearts in the dust
We wonder why there?s an apathetic epidemic here today

You have it right in the technical sense and you demand it that way, but peoples lives and how you deal with matters, makes you heartfully wrong, you divide and dismay.
CHORUS
It may seem impossible make a difference and speak the truth even if you may loose
Take a chance and get involved; gotta make a stand in your life, start with your neighbors your friends.
CHORUS
You gotta get some common sense here now, cause it?s getting scarcer

CHORUS -CHORUS
You gotta get some common sense here now You gotta get some common sense here now,
