Verse
TAhis World We LEive In Is All We’ve GAot
We Have To MEake The Most Of What We Have, Don’t Pine For What It’s NAot
Don’t Idly DSit And Stare As Each New Day Goes RushingA By
Without A ThEought Of Asking Why, You Just Don’t Seem To Want To TAry
You Only TDake Out Of This Life The Same As You PutA In
And When The TEimes Are Lean And Thin Just Try To Take It On The ChAin

Verse
TAhis World We LEive In Is One Of GrAeed
But The Greedy PEedlars Can Only Hawk Their Wares If We Create The NAeed
The Starving CDhild Sold As A Slave In Countries Like TAaiwan

It’s No Use SDaying ‘Sad, But There Is Nothing We CanA Do’
It’s Really EUp To Me And You, We’ve Got To Pull Those Children ThrAough

Verse
TAhis World We LEive In Is One Of SAin
When A Man Can ClEub To Death A Seal Pup For The Pelt That He Lives AIn
Or Arm HimDself With Guns And Then It’s Off To Sea He ASails
To Hunt And KEill A School Of Whales So Some Damned Girl Can Paint Her NAails
Or Jump UpDon A Horse And With A Jacket Flowing ARed
And Tossing BEack A Laughing Head Can Hunt A Fox Until It’s DAead

Verse
TAhis World We LEive In, We Think We’re PAoor
We Can’t AffEord The H.p. Payments On The Video No MAore
But Try To TDhink How Life Could Be If We Couldn’t Afford To AEat
And Never MEind That 3-Piece Suite - A Bowl Of Rice And Two Cold FAeet
Could Be Your DLot If You Hadn’t Been Born In A Country That Is AFree
Are You So BlEind That You Can’t See - You Could Be Raped By PoAverty
