What kind of world do you want?

Good question. I love when I encounter songs that really make you think. Five For Fighting's single "World", from their 2006 release Two Lights, does just that. I have had this album for a while now, but encountered the song again while listening to the radio (something I don't normally do, but have been doing a lot lately, for some reason).  I arrived at my destination and had to look up the lyrics. I won't offer my interpretation here, but instead I would love to know your thoughts. Check it out:

Lyrics (from www.sing365.com)

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
Can you dig it baby

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 Starts Now

Be careful what you wish for
Start Now NOW
