Mothers cryin' in the Children at their feet me why, ooh, tell me why? People starvin' There's too much But there's to spare Tell me why, oh, tell me
Can you see that of sunlight? Can you see it in my I can feel the fire that's Anger and hope so So deep within my But before my Oh, for some it's too 'Cos it seems no one listenin'
People sleepin' in the No roof above, no to eat Tell me why, me why? See the in their eyes Listen to their cries Tell me why, please tell me
If a God, is He watchin'? Can He give a ray of So pain and so much sorrow Tell me, does he see When he at you When he at me? What would he it seems there's no one listenin'
Who would think it could happen Even in time and place? Politicians, they may themselves Oh, but they won't their face So hope hope It's not too
You say there's you can do Is there one rule for and one for you? Tell me why, just me why?
Listen, can you see shaft of sunlight? Can you see it in my I can the fire that's burnin' Anger and so deep So deep my heart But before my For some it's too And it seems no one listenin'
