They tell me that the sun comes up every morning |
|
They tell me that there's people out on the streets |
|
But why is life so cruel |
|
They tell me man he tops the list in creation |
|
He takes his place as uncrowned king of the world |
|
But why is man so cruel |
|
He's doin' time |
|
Ain't it a crime. |
|
Oh prince of peace |
|
We need you now |
|
Give us a sign |
|
To show us how. |
|
Locked in her room the lover mourns her betrayer |
|
Seems even love possesses treachery too |
|
But how can love be cruel |
|
Ain't it a shame |
|
He took the blame: |
|
Seems this old world |
|
Has lost its way |
|
On such a torn |
|
And troubled day |
|
Locked in her room the lover mourns her betrayer |
|
Surely not love possesses treachery too |
|
But how can love be cruel |
|
He's doin' time |
|
Ain't it a crime. |
