I read the headlines an' it makes me so mad
I change the channel cause the news looks bad
A great society is breakin' down in front of me

An' our leaders seem so unaware
It's plain to see that they just don't care
We could do so much we gotta get in touch with reality - yeah

It's not so hard to see what's goin' on
But no one answers when I say

I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there?
Wonderin' - does anyone care?
I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see?
Or is it just me? Is it just me?

You can see it from coast to coast
An' it's the children who are sufferin' most
Some with no shoes on their feet, no good food they can eat
Where's the dignity for them?

Here in this land of opportunity
They should deserve a better break

I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there?
Wonderin' - does anyone care?
I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see?
Or is it just me? Is it just me?

An' now I pray for you America
Don't let the dream go and slip away

I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there?
Wonderin' - does anyone care?
I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see
