[Verse 1] Why does so few have so much Why does so many have no lunch Why do people starve when food is wasted And so many children die from food not tasted [Verse 2] Why does skin color determine your status Your place in society or seat on a bus Why do the rich think their super While they consider the poor to be inferior [Chorus] On a little blue marble hurling through space Why do we grapple with fear of race Whether by evolution or by God's grace There's only one here it's the human race Way we treat each other is a disgrace World changes so fast we can't keep pace No matter how we feel we must face There's only one here it's the human race [Bridge] We have no empathy for our fellow man We hate others that we don't understand We have no sympathy for those who lack We turn up our noses and turn our backs [Guitar solo] [Verse 3] We claim to be christian but ignore the poor Despise the homeless and hide behind our door We sing praises to God in our church Ignore hurting people from our high purch [Verse 4] So why tell me why do we act this way The God we worship we'll have to face one day Do you really think he approves of us now And if you really do please tell me how [Chorus] [Fade to end] See you on the other side
