LYRICS
Yesterday I heard the news
That four million Russian children are homeless
They've been abandoned by the people they trust
Now they are cold and lonely
Lives are hopeless
Children of the world are dying
People say they care
They are lying
If this life was theirs
They'd be crying
Is it really fair
We're not trying
Yesterday I read the news
That twenty million Asian children are homeless
They've been abandoned by the people they love
They've been beaten down so hard they can't get up
Children of the world are dying
People say they care
They are lying
If this life was theirs
They'd be crying
Is it really fair
Children of the world
People say they care
Well they are lying
If this life was theirs
They'd be crying
Is it really fair
We're not trying
Life is beautiful for some
Life is beautiful for us
Life isn't beautiful for them
Maybe life can be beautiful again
For them
