lyrics

Turn off your television, and your computer screen
Take a look around, our world is under siege
Many of us suffer, with unmet basic needs
Time to join the chorus and set the people free

Cut the trees
No one breathe

Poison food
Spreads disease

Toxic water
Burning sky

Slowly to set our world on fire

But it is not our world
If we leave it in the hands
of the million-dollar, billion-dollar, trillion-dollar man

No, it is not our world
If we’re too afraid to stand and face
The million-dollar, billion-dollar, trillion-dollar man

NO, NO

dressed down in designer, sitting way up high
cannot see the people, and yet they will decide
what’s best for us tomorrow, who is wrong and who is right
putting pen to paper, they sign away our lives…

Penthouse suite
Suit and tie

Telling jokes
Spreading lies

On the ground
People fighting to survive

In good business, many lose their lives

It is not our world
If we leave it in the hands
of the million-dollar, billion-dollar, trillion-dollar man

No, it is not our world
If we’re too afraid to stand and face
The million-dollar, billion-dollar, trillion-dollar man

We must stand together, seize opportunity
Build a world without corruption, a world without disease
a world where every nation is free from poverty
a world where education and learning never cease…
