|
People are lying they keep on trying |
|
To live where they can be free |
|
They jump into boats with a knife at their throats |
|
It's a problem for you not for me |
|
The trouble is politicians rule with an iron hand |
|
The trouble is the threat's alive among the living and the damned |
|
Children are crying people are starving |
|
We say we're helpless it's their destiny |
|
Countdown to disaster before and after |
|
Is all the same, it's got a different name and that's all |
|
The trouble is black and white are turning into grey |
|
The trouble is it's getting hard just to get the time of day |
|
I get up at night and I can't find the light |
|
As I stumble in total darkness |
|
I'm writing this song to point the finger at what's wrong |
|
But words of wisdom seem to escape me |
|
The trouble is you got no right to tell us right from wrong |
|
The trouble is it's just too bad if you don't like this song |
|
The trouble is you politicians can't understand |
|
The trouble is that we the people will fight 'till the end |
