"Somebody Told Me" Lyrics

/ 5
Song updated, review now!
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
Mmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm.
I'm sure you know who I'm talking about.

You see, he sees the world is full of confusion.
People not knowing who to trust, no.
He's wondering why we still can't be
In this world he gave us.

It's about time we submit to the master plan
And bring all this pain and war to an end.
Well.
He said it's about time for a brand new day
And a brand new world to begin.
Somebody told me.

Somebody told me to deliver this message.
And I pass it on, pass it to you.
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
I'm sure you know who, you know who.

You see, she's a child who's dying of hunger
And another man's eating good, yeah.
He's wondering why that man hasn't even thought about
Helping that baby if he could.

He woke me up this morning, yes he did,
And this is what he had to say.
Well. (Yes he did.)
He said, "Get on up. Go out and tell the world
That this here is a brand new day."
(Oh, oh, oh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.)
He woke me up and told me to tell you it's a brand new day.

(Somebody told me to deliver this message.)
He said pass it on, pass it on.
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure you know who.

It's about time we submit to the master plan, yes it is,
(Well.)
And bring all this pain and war to an end, yes it is.
(Well.) Yes it is. (Well.)
He said it's about time for a brand new day
And a brand new world to begin.
Somebody woke me up this morning and told me to tell you.

(Somebody told me to deliver this message.)
He said pass it on to you.
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure you know who.
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
You see, it's a brand new day.
It's a brand new day, brand new, brand new.
Somebody told me to deliver this message.
He gave his only begotten son so that you and I can live.
You and I...You and I...You and I can live.
Well.

You see, a long time ago
When I was about 10 years old...
If you read in Proverbs 25:13, you'd see where it says,
"As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a
faithful messenger to them that send him for he
refresheth the soul of his masters."
He said, "Get on up, get on up.
Get on up, go out and tell the world

(Somebody told me deliver this message.)
That the time is coming, time is coming
When the world will have to come to an end."
(Somebody told me to deliver this message.)
Ah, you better be ready. You better be ready.
Ah, time waits for no one, no.
(Somebody told me to deliver this message.)
You better be ready, children.
You got to be ready.
(Somebody told me to deliver this message.)
