There goes one baby's life |
| [00:03.55] |
It's such a small amount |
| [00:06.29] |
She's un-American |
| [00:09.02] |
I guess it doesn't count |
| [00:11.81] |
Six thousand children's lives |
| [00:14.66] |
Were simply thrown away |
| [00:17.35] |
Lost without medicine |
| [00:20.28] |
Inside of thirty days |
| [00:23.32] |
In the New York harbour |
| [00:25.95] |
Where the stock's withheld |
| [00:28.54] |
It was the price we paid |
| [00:31.48] |
For a safer world |
| [00:34.07] |
World is suffering |
| [00:36.86] |
World is suffering |
| [00:39.65] |
World is suffering |

In Madhya Pradesh |
| [00:51.05] |
Where they're building dams |
| [00:53.73] |
They're displacing native people |
| [00:56.58] |
From their homes and lands |
| [00:59.52] |
So they hunger strike |
| [01:01.96] |
Cos they believe they count |
| [01:04.69] |
To lose a single life |
| [01:07.43] |
Is such a small amount |
| [01:10.56] |
In the name of progress |
| [01:13.65] |
And democracy |
| [01:16.88] |
The concepts represented in name only |
| [01:21.86] |
His world is suffering |
| [01:24.60] |
Her world is suffering |
| [01:27.29] |
Their world is suffering |
| [01:30.13] |

And the buildings fall |
| [01:49.65] |
In a cloud of dust |
| [01:52.50] |
And we ask ourselves |
| [01:55.23] |
How could they hate us? |
| [01:57.62] |
Well, when we live in ignorance and luxury |
| [02:03.50] |
While our super powers practice |
| [02:06.64] |
Puppet mastery |
| [02:09.92] |
We raise the men |
| [02:12.01] |
Who run the fascist states |
| [02:14.95] |
And we sell them arms |
| [02:17.55] |
So they maintain their place |
| [02:20.88] |
We turn our backs |
| [02:22.92] |
On the things they done |
| [02:26.45] |
Their human rights record |
| [02:28.74] |
And the guns they run |
| [02:31.34] |
His world is suffering |
| [02:33.98] |
Her world is suffering |
| [02:36.87] |
Their world is suffering |
| [02:39.60] |
World citizen |
| [02:42.45] |
My world is suffering |
| [02:45.14] |
Your world is suffering |
| [02:48.02] |
Our world is suffering |

Who'll do away with flags? |
| [02:59.78] |
Who'll do us proud? |
| [03:02.07] |
Remove the money from their pockets |
| [03:04.95] |
Scream dissent out loud? |
| [03:08.14] |
Cos god ain't on our side |
| [03:11.18] |
The shoe won't fit |
| [03:13.13] |
And though they think the war is won |
| [03:15.86] |
That's not the last of it |
| [03:19.00] |
Disenfranchised people |
| [03:21.59] |
Need their voices heard |
| [03:24.48] |
And if no one stops to listen |
| [03:27.07] |
Lose their faith in words |
| [03:30.40] |
And violence rises |
| [03:32.49] |
When all hope is lost |
| [03:35.59] |
Who'll embrace the human spirit |
| [03:38.28] |
And absorb the cost? |
| [03:49.74] |
Not one life is taken |
| [03:54.38] |
In my name |
| [03:56.87] |
In my name |
| [04:03.67] |
His world is suffering |
| [04:06.41] |
Her world is suffering |
| [04:09.36] |
Their world is suffering |

World citizen |

Your world is suffering |
