The lies you keep telling me over and over
 Will never destroy me or
 Make me a pawn in the game you want to play
 Misleading the masses, creating disasters
 You rule by destroying, and still
 You think I'll believe in what you say

Chorus
 We only have one world to live in
 How come we allow them to tear it apart?
 We only have one world to live in
 It's time now to learn how to make a new start

 How can you look at yourself in the mirror
 And say you are proud when
 All you've achieved is pain and misery
 Starvation, pollution and radioactive wastelands
 Empty resources, we'll hold
 You responsible when that time has come.

Chorus
 We only have one world to live in
 How come we allow them to tear it apart?
 We only have one world to live in
 It's time now to learn how to make a new start

Chorus
 We only have one world to live in
 How come we allow them to tear it apart?
 We only have one world to live in
 It's time now to learn how to make a new start
