  You can be a fool with someone you met on the subway
  You can be cool enough
  You can be cool, it could be easy to be nice to those you don't even know
  
  But can you...                      Can you help the one   you

  It's easy to write a check and that is that
  It's easy to walk by or even shed a tear
  
  But can you help               the one, the one you really love?

  Can you help the one you really love?
  
  It's easy to be brave
  It's easy to be angry
  It's easy to fade
  When there's no one in your home
  
  When you get up you feel good
  You take your vitamin pills
  You eat your shredded wheat
  And you read about the kills
  
  When you wash your hands of the world
  Think about some girl
  And you wonder as you always have
  Can you help, can you help, can you help the one you really love?
  
  It's easy to be kind
  It's easy to be right when no one knows the details of your life
  It's easy to be upright
  When no one knows the truth that lies behind the pages
  
  And what you write in your newspaper
  When you condemn
  When you judge
  When you sneer
  And you call...when you call out for a revolution
  Or you call out for a bloodbath or a witch-hunt
  
  But I ask this you now, can you help the one you really love?
  
  Can you help the one, can you help the one, can you help the one you really love
