Yesterday I heard the news
that 4 million Russian children are homeless.
They’ve been abandoned by the people they trust,
now their cold and lonely lives are hopeless.
Children round the world are dying,
people say they care- they’re lying.
If this life was theirs they’d be crying;
is it really fair we’re not trying.
Yesterday I heard the news
that 20 million Asian children are homeless.
They’ve been abandoned by the people they love,
they’ve been beaten down so hard they can’t get up.
Children round the world are dying,
people say they care- they’re lying.
If this life was theirs they’d be crying;
is it really fair we’re not trying.
Life is beautiful for some, life is beautiful for us.
Life is isn’t beautiful for them, maybe life can be beautiful again
for them.
