Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

8 million citizens
Nobody is really listening
Nobody is really watching
8 million ignorant
80 000 teaches 
Way too many preachers
A thousand ?? but nobody leads us
3 million backers
4 million pleasers
We are the world
But they don't really need us
Get to get no fans
Get to got no-one
Get to A-no fun
Get to get no kids
Got guns
'Cause they got no-one
No one
No one
No one

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Nobody's listening to the sounds of the street
The clema, the violence, the sirens, the heat
Five million ?? 
Five million desperate
One million hurt
A thousand arrested
The times are changing
Cries are singing
Everybody's praying
Forgive us father for all our sins
The hatred, the greed, the aliens
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
There aint no sounds of silence
Tell me whose gonna help us now
Nobodoy's listening
8 million people rotting
Looking for shelter
But they got nowhere to go

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening
Fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water.
