the beggar on the street, it's enough to make you weep

he wants something he can shoot through his veins

tearing up the place when the heart begins to race

and the needle fills the great escape

selling neverland, build your house upon the sand

with your feet planted deep in the grave

wasting precious time, trying to kill his empty mind

and his spirit's dying on the way



your life is just a mist before the late autumn breeze

there's got to be a reason for the air we breathe



where's the wrong with the share

where's the hope, we need to care

where's the faith in our society



something's wrong with the world today

something's wrong with the world today



shooting in the park, raping in the dark

child abuse going on and on

stealing everywhere and no one seems to care

fornication running all around



trying to find a reason for the things that we do

no one's got a minute when there's nothing to prove



trying to find a reason for the things that we do

no one's got a minute when there's nothing to prove



where's the love we need to share

where's the hope, we need to care

where's the faith in our society

find the justice and the law

where's the peace, where has it gone

who's the jury of our sanity



something's wrong with the world today

something's wrong with the world today



(solo)



something's wrong with the world today

something's wrong with the world today
