Lyrics
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Do you ever wonder why
We don't see eye to eye?
English doesn't flow enough
Chinese isn't slow enough
Russian we don't know enough
To tell them how we feel
All those preachers tellin' you
You're religious, good for you
Perfect for the whole world too
If they know what's good for them
Oh, listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Do you ever wonder why
We don't see eye to eye?
Did you ever listen to the TV ad-man's spiel?
Love is just another way to make another deal
Don't you feel a bit ashamed
For the politician's game?
Yet we signed beside his name
And put him where he is
Oh, listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Do you ever wonder why
We don't see eye to eye?
The voice of the people should echo far and wide
Instead of keeping what they feel bottled up inside
Let the people have their say
Tomorrow isn't far away
It should be better than today
If we raise our voices
Oh, listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Did you ever wonder why
We don't see eye to eye?
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Oh, listen to the world, the world, the world
Did you ever wonder why
You don't see eye to eye?
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
Oh, listen to the world, the world, the world
Did you ever wonder why
You don't see eye to eye?
Listen to the world, the world, the world
Listen to the people cry
