In my dream children sing
a song of love for every boy and girl
the sky is
and fields are green and
is the language of the world
then I wake and all I see is a world
of
people in _

Tell me why (why)
does it
be like this
Tell me why (why)
is there something I have
Tell me why (why)
cause I don't understand when so many
need somebody we don't give a
Tell me why
Everyday I ask
what will I have to do to be a man

and

when so many
need somebody we don't give a helping hand
