The End

by Yusuf Islam

You can't bargain with the truth
whether you're right or you're wrong
we're gonna know where you belong
in the end

You can't bargain with the truth
whether you're black or you're white
we're gonna see you in the light
we're gonna know where you belong
in the end

Whether you're Muslim, Christian, Hindu or Jew
you better know we're gonna recognize you
You can't bargain with the truth
'cause one day you're gonna die
and the good's going high
and evil's gonna fry
in the end

Note:

Especially composed for Live Aid 1985 - was to be sung solo/accapella. A combination of Elton John running over time and Bob Geldof and Harvey Goldsmith being skeptical about the song- they would've preferred Morning Has Broken, prevented him going on.
