Take what you need, give what you can

Who's gonna help those struggling

Who's gonna watch their backs for them

With no water in their well

And no food for the fire



Good people if you understand

It doesn't take much to lend your hand

And give to those less fortunate

What they cannot get themselves



You can close your eyes

It wont go away

Burgers and fries while the struggler pays

You shoe off the flies

They still hang around

Feel the vultures staring down at ya



You can't hide from what you know is true

There's always someone else worse off than you

And if there was something that you could do

Would you reach out and do it?



Intelligent people of this land

Help with ya neighbour if you can

Don't be afraid to lend your hand

Take what you need

And give what you can



Do it, give what you can





This song by NZ band The Blackseeds was a good reminder for me today - and a nice chilled out song to listen to as well.
