Please tell me what this song is called, its driving me mad!!!?

Question

I know this is a bit vague, but here goes.
It is an eighties type song and some of the lyrics go "all this peace and understanding.............. " Then it goes on to sing "ooreli ooreli ooreli ooreli ooreli ooreli ay" The people in the music vid are wearing american stars and stripes type costumes and they dance with their arms outstretched going up and down. The statue of Liberty also features in it.
Any clues please?

Answer 3

What the heck?? No that doesn't really happen to me. I love my best friend. We spent a whole week together at camp one time. I don't think this girl is your best friend match. Why don't you try to find a different best friend or start telling your current friend when she does something that annoys you? You don't have to say it rudely, just kind of jokingly tell her that she shouldn't be so rude. She might get the point. But yeah, look around at school and try to find someone with similar interests with you. This girl doesn't sounds like the greatest of all people. Honestly, she sounds like she has a lot of growing up to do.

down so low that I bit the ground
let's hear it from the heart of America
ya da dee yeh - yeh ee oh

where's the peace and understanding?
go drum go dance sound on sound
all this peace and understanding
go drum go dance round and round
in America yeeooo ay da yeeooo ah

a pocket full of posies
and cheap scented roses
every house should have it's hat on
so in and out and round and round,
up and down and lost and found
hey ah ha!

magazines and gasoline
and made-in-Taiwan western scenes
will you hear us in the heart of America?
ya da dee yeh - yeh ee oh
in America
urelei USA
for America

where's the peace and understanding?
go drum go dance sound on sound
all this peace and understanding
go drum go dance round and round
in America yeeooo ay da yeeooo ah

na na ne na ne na na
all this peace and understanding

where's the peace and understanding?
go drum go dance sound on sound
all this peace and understanding
go drum go dance round and round
in America yeeooo ay da yeeooo ah

all this peace and understanding
