| Well, I guess it ain’t no secret
|
| We can see it all
|
| Some people they got nothing
|
| Except their backs against the wall
|
| (It's a shame, it’s a shame)
|
| Trouble everywhere
|
| (Shame, shame)
|
| They ain’t even got clean water
|
| Because we never share
|
| That’s the way it is
|
| (That's just the way it is)
|
| Yes, that’s just the way it is
|
| (It's a shame, it’s a shame)
|
| That’s just the way it is
|
| Now it’s the same same old story
|
| Now we got more than we need
|
| It’s a shame, yes it’s a shame
|
| When others just got poverty
|
| You know this can’t go on now
|
| This can’t go on like this no more
|
| 'Cause we’re going down, down, down, down, down
|
| Going down
|
| Down, down, down, down, down |
