Verse 1

Misery fell on the town when they all lost their looks

They spent all those years with their jobs and their scholarly books

With no one to share all their thoughts and their worldly to be’s, oh noo

They got down and prayed a little more for a life that was free

Verse 2

Altered and changed they insist how reform comes along

A wise men suggested they work in their smiles, not their love

And all of a sudden it sounds like the town was to be, oh yes

A happier place where they'll live out their personal dream

La la la la la, la la la la la la la,

la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

Chorus

Why oh why this

Town without love, too much faith in above

Can you see? Can you feel the

Force that it brings, not to worry ‘bout things

Just the stars in the sky, all the joy in their time

With a hope forrrrr peace

Over melodica instrumental

Verse 3

First thing they do is to substitute pleasure for pain

Helping themselves figure out there’s so much they can gain

But that can't surrender their chemistry books if they fell, oh well

They frolic and take in the love that persistently waits

La la la la la, la la la la la la la,

la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

Chorus

Why oh why this

Town without love, too much faith in above

Can you see? Can you feel the

Force that it brings, not to worry ‘bout things

Just the stars in the sky, all the joy in their time

With a hope forrrrr peace

Instrumental

End Chorus:

Why oh why this

Town without love, too much faith in above

Can you see? Can you feel the

Force that it brings, not to worry ‘bout things

Just the stars in the sky, all the joy in their time

All the people that kiss, all the children that wish

All the fresh living flowers that spend all their hours

Outside in the rain, just so happy you came

From so far for so long, with a welcoming song

Just to say, to saaaay
