We're [D] gonna to save the world
But [A7] first we're gonna need a [D] plan
[Men] (We need a pla-an, we need a pla-an)
We [D] want to make it better
Be[A7]fore it gets out of [D] hand
[Women] (So out of ha-and, way out of ha-and)
[G] Climate change or stopping wars which one do we choose?
[D] Maybe we can throw a dice [A7] catch us on the news
We're [D] gonna to save the world
But [A7] first we're gonna need a [D] plan. [A7]

[Em] Climate change, what the
[A7] Hail you say, happened to the [D] weather?
[Women] (The weather, what happened to the weather?)
[Em] Who’s to blame?
[A7] Forestry, people or [D] chickens
[Men] (Who you calling chickens?)
We [G] burnt the trees and [A7] started global warming
[D] Call a hui, back to [Bm] basic
Just [G] keep on taking
[A7] One little step at a [D] time. [A7]

[Chorus]

[Em] Stopping war
[A7] Why do we kill one a[D]nother?
[Women] (Why do we kill? Kill one another?)
With [Em] me, in charge
We’d [A7] stop man’s hunger for [D] power
[Men] (Hunger, hunger for power)
[G] Kill the inciter or [A7] spread the love
Or [D] put all our faith in the [Bm] lord above
Be [G] happy and contented and
[A7] Always, be there on [D] time. [A7]

[D] You write the verses and [G] I’ll write the chorus
([D] You write the verses and [G] I’ll write the chorus)
[E] Nah, you write the verses (nah [A] I’ll write the chorus)
([E] You write the verses and [A] We’ll write the chorus)
[F] I’ll write the verses and [Bb] You write the chorus
([F] You write the verses and [Bb] we’ll write the chorus).

We're [F] gonna to save the world
But [C] first we're gonna need a [F] plan
(We need a pla-an, we need a pla-an)
We want to make it better
Be[C]fore it gets out of [F] hand
(So out of ha-and, way out of ha-and)
[Bb] Climate change or stopping wars which one do we choose?
[F] Maybe we can throw a dice [C] catch us on the news
We're [F] gonna to save the world
But [C] first we're gonna need a [F] plan
(We need a pla-an, we need a pla-an)
We're gonna to save the world
But [C] first we're gonna need a [F] plan. [Bb][F][C][F][****]

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
