Can you hear it?
Off in the receding distance...
Cries of global hunger
Desperate famine
advancing our way
No longer
just a Third World
tragedy play
Can you hear it now?
Perhaps you should
pop out those ear buds?
Now we got mass pestilence
sneaking over our walls
of smug indifference
I guess it can happen here
You can't ignore problems away
In our rapidly shrinking world
there is no more THEM
No more faceless unfortunates
There is finally only us
One Humanity tragically
united by poverty
