ABC - One Better World Lyrics






Politician preaching - on TV
Saying nothing but - vote for me
Everybody, everywhere
We got a love, got a love
Got a love we gotta share

One better world
One better world
One better world

Papers feeding - lies each day
Are you believing - what they say?
Pulpit preachers - selling God
Making big bucks - is that enough?

Everybody, everywhere
We got a love, got a love
Got a love we gotta share

Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Let the lion lie down with the lamb
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Don't use the color of the skin to judge a man

Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Does it matter if you're gay or if you're straight?
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
If it does you fill this world with hate

Underneath a flag
Love is just a name
But underneath the moon
We are all the same

ABC One Better World Comments
  1. P.... S....

    Where's the Savill Roe suites..?
    That's not good enough..

  2. D.... D....

    I love abc, this song has a Great message but this sound is not their finest hour, Kinda sux imo

  3. l.... r....

    this is a great example of bad music, bad production and terrible dancing.

  4. r.... f....

    *SCAR AND 23 HYENAS HATE THIS MUSIC*

  5. G.... B....

    The Thing That Makes this Uplifting Song Fall Down is their accent.
    ONE BETTER WORLD
    sounds like
    ONE BADDER WORLD .
    throwing it into the NEGATIVE PILE / BIN.
    Listen to it carefully.


    There was a song " PLEASE DON'T GO " .
    Everyone sang " BEANS ON TOAST ".
    cos that's how it sounded to say.


    No I'm Not daft, I'm saying like people try to READ a cars Private Reg & Mix it up.
    OR Buy It that way to read it Mixed up / or read fast/ or in local Slang etc.
    ABC are Ace i Love all their Tracks. except ONE BADDER WORLD ??
    Maybe they Meant it to sound that way ????

  6. s.... ....

    Nice song, but this music style wasn't really their thing, and the video is silly. They should have perform this in their suits and use their unique bombastic 80's disco sound with great arrangements.

  7. T.... ....

    The woman singing sounds A LOT like Lisa Stansfield

    T.... ....

    A No!!!

  8. J.... B....

    This song sucks
    ABC had its prime with few songs during the 80s. Then the band collapsed.

    J.... B....

    Well, for a song of its time, it's still a decent pop song as such. ABC embraced house music and generally the roots of anything remotely "house" were already established in their earlier records. They went with the times - "Up" may not be the best album they did but it's a decent pop record of that era. Meaning, they still took inspiration from the underground, and took it to the charts. As naive as it may sound, they tried out new ideas. "Abracadabra", the last LP with Mark White on board is also a good record as such.

    Politicians preaching-on TV
    Saying nothing but-vote for me
    Everybody, everywhere
    We got a love, got a love
    Got a love we gotta share...
    1 better world
    1 better world
    1 better world
    Papers feeding-lies each day
    Are you believing-what they say?
    Pulpit preachers-selling God
    Making big bucks-is that enough?
    Everybody, everywhere
    We got a love, got a love
    Got a love we gotta share...
    1 better world
    1 better world
    1 better, better, better world
    Some way-somehow- some place- somewhere
    Let the lion lie down with the lamb
    Some way-somehow-some place-somewhere
    Don't use the colour of his skin to judge the man
    Someday-somehow-some place-somewhere
    Does it matter if you're gay or if you're straight
    Someday-somehow-some place-somewhere
    If it does you fill this world with hate
    Underneath a flag
    Love is just a name
    But underneath the moon
    We are all the same
    Everybody, everywhere
    We got a love, got a love
    Got a love we gotta share...
    1 better world
    1 better world
    1 better, better, better world

  10. W.... K....

    Hearing this song for the first time in 2016.

    Most unfortunately, people need to hear this song and learn from it's message MORE THAN EVER.

    ):


    Of course, i could make similar arguments for Star Trek, They Live, The Prisoner, etc....

  11. J.... E....

    "Does it matter if you're gay or if you're straight? If it does, you fill this world with hate."
    Amen, brother.

    J.... E....

    Martin Fry: embracing the LGBTQIA+ community before it was cool to embrace us. But, then again, he was always ahead of his time.

    J.... E....

    Yes. He was... Not anymore... You see... He made a comeback, and his band still uses real instruments. And I prefer that...

  12. P.... S....

    27 years ago just now

  13. Q.... ....

    I was hoping to see Lisa Stanfield who does a sweet vocal part in the song but, alas she is not in the video.

  14. C.... T....

    Ahhhhhh! So underrated!
    Okay, I did not grow up with them but I love them.
    Martin Fry..... Is a GOD!

  15. a.... ....

    Love the song and the album UP is still a favorite. However, that said every other song on the album is better than the two choices for singles in my opinion. "I'm In Love wih You" and "Greatest Love of All" would have been my choices... and "North" is the best! Still...this song still sounds great!

    a.... ....

    YES! "North" is my all time favorite ABC song. Brilliant. It just feels so good. I used to listen to it when I was driving up the coast in California.

    a.... ....

    Glad there are other "North" fans... the song is so cool and grown up and I always look forward to listening to it in the fall... I have seasonal songs so that's one for autumn.

  16. 1.... ....

    Good song but they look silly in this video. This song sounded so much better live.

  17. R.... J....

    Good words,but not their best song.When did Mark White leave?

    R.... J....

    +Raymond Johnson In 1992, after the abracadabra album.

    R.... J....

    Only one of their songs can be their best =^)

  18. D.... G....

    how far bands fall. fuck

  19. C.... H....

    So good zone better world

  20. B.... ....

    I love any ABC song, but I like the message in this song, its a very uplifting song for me...

  21. m.... m....

    Mark White is my favorite of ABC.  Handsome, charming and talented!!!

    m.... m....

    John James McCourt boyfriend.

  22. �.... ....

    マーティン、トレーナーをジーパンにいれるとは、ナウイのぅ!

  23. K.... K....

  24. C.... ....
