"If everyone smoke blunts and got high we'd see a world where nobody died"

Nickelback If Everyone Cared Lyrics
From underneath the trees, we watch the sky Confusing stars for satellites I never dreamed that you'd be mine But here we are, we're here tonight Singing Amen I, I'm alive (I'm alive) Singing Amen I, I'm alive [CHORUS] If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride Then we'd see the day when nobody died I'm singing Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive Amen I,Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive And in the air the fireflies Our only light in paradise We'll show the world they were wrong And teach them all to sing along Singing Amen I, I'm alive (I'm alive) Singing Amen I, I'm alive [CHORUS (x2)] And as we lie beneath the stars We realize how small we are If they could love like you and me Imagine what the world could be If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride Then we'd see the day when nobody died (x2) We'd see the day, we'd see the day When nobody died We'd see the day, we'd see the day When nobody died We'd see the day when nobody died

Wow! My life has changed because of this song. Maybe Mr. Kroeger wrote this song while he was smoking a bong in his swimming pool. Apparently, he also believes that smoking weed and doing "shrooms" will save the world as well. Here is a snippet of an article from "High Times".

Vancouver's tolerance for illegal organic delights has afforded Kroeger the opportunity to experiment with growing mushrooms (Nickelback's first hit single from The State, "Leader of Men," was written under the influence). "You can buy mushroom kits that have spores already in soil cake," he says. "It's moron-proof. Take it home, spray it and put it in the closet. In a week, put a light bulb over the top, plug it in every 12 hours, next thing you know there are beautiful mushrooms growing at an alarming rate. You use a growth hormone on the patty to enhance the fungus. You have to carefully gauge [the strength of] organic 'shrooms. You don't want to wreck your entire day." Recently, when Nickelback hit the road with 3 Doors Down, the bands bonded over bong hits. "I make it a habit to go bong shopping in every town," Kroeger explains. "I love big, beautiful glass bongs. When someone grabs it, takes a pull, then holds it away from themselves, they go, ‘That's gorgeous.' When we head back to Canada, we make sure the radio is on and we get nice and cooked. We do a big smoke session and give the bongs away." Kroeger gave his bong to 3 Doors Down's bassist, Todd Harrell, before crossing back into Canada. "It's a friendly tradition," he says. When he's not stuck on the tour bus or producing local band Default's debut, The Fallout, Kroeger can be found living out his rock star fantasy at home. "I'm lying in my pool on a floating chair with a bong in one hand, telephone in the other," he says, smiling. "I'm listening to Bob Marley and I'm looking up to the sky."

Now, I'm not saying that peace is a bad idea. It's a very unrealistic idea. This world is fucked up but are Nickelback really the people to tell us? This song is so dumb. "If everyone cared and nobody cried"? Crying is a part of human emotion. If you didn't cry you have a problem. Chad Kroeger gives a recipe for eternal life. I'm happy that smoking all that weed has made this wonderful revelation. Who knew eternal life was so easy to get? All me have to do and care and share and no one will die. Pretty sure that this planet whould cease to exisist if no one died.
