Where In The World 歌詞
Where In The World - Have Nots
Where in the world was the world
Where in the world was the world
Where in the world was the world
Where in the world was the world
When an ounce of prevention
Could have saved a pound of cure
Ready for your close-up
In the wake of the disaster
Callous condescending claims
The network newscaster
That with crimes of compassion
Correspondents have crossed the line
Hollywood elite and ex-presidents unite
We all wear a somber face
For the cameras tonight
It's only apropos
When the bodies are piling high
What's in it for us
Is what the world bank asks
When your country's highest export
Is our lowest working class
You know it's not like common welfare
Is our raison detre
You know we could have built
Those buildings out of real concrete
Could have given them clean water
And healthy food to eat
But they looked over the numbers
Saw no profit to be made
But where in the world was
The world (before the big one came)
Where in the world was the world
(for disease and acid rain)
Where in the world was the world
(for the poisoned and the poor)
Yeah where was the world
When an ounce of prevention
Could have saved a pound of cure
So we turn a blind eye and the deafest of ears
To the most poverty-stricken country
In the western hemisphere
Throwing money at the problem now
Too little and too late
Well you can't blame fault lines for
Where they've fallen
But from a humanist perspective man
I find it appalling
That indifference and neglect resigned
These souls to their sad fates
Where was the world before
It opened under
Taking what was left of
All that we neglected
Where was the world before
It opened under them
The Nation of compassion only
When the world is watching
Do we take any action
Then we rally round the blood
Where in the world was the world
Where in the world was the world
Where in the world was the world
(before the big one came)
Where in the world was the world
(for disease and acid rain)
Where in the world was the world
(for the poisoned and the poor)
Where in the world was the world
