Mothers in the street Children dyin' at feet me why, ooh, tell me why? People starvin' too much food But there's to spare Tell me why, oh, tell me
Can you see shaft of sunlight? Can you see it in my I can the fire that's burnin' Anger and so deep So within my heart But my eyes Oh, for some it's too it seems there's no one listenin'
People sleepin' in the No above, no food to eat Tell me why, me why? See the questions in eyes Listen to their cries Tell me why, please me why?
If there's a God, is He Can He give a ray of So much and so much sorrow Tell me, does he see When he at you When he at me? What he say? 'Cos it there's no one listenin'
Who would think it still happen Even in this and place? Politicians, they may save Oh, but they won't save their So against hope not too late
You say there's you can do Is one rule for them and one for you? Tell me why, just me why?
Listen, can you see that of sunlight? Can you see it in my I can feel the fire burnin' and hope so deep So deep within my But my eyes For some it's too And it seems there's no one
for me, hurry for me And for me, hurry for me, they cry, they cry for me, hurry for me And hurry for me, for me, they cry, they cry Hurry for me, for me And for me, hurry for me, they cry, they cry Just hurry for me, for me
