What A World Lyrics

See the fire consume the land
well I asked you here,
yes I asked you here
bodies burning in the sand
and I asked you here
yes I asked you here

What a world
what a world,
where no one has a chance to live
and peace on earth is just a myth
it's just a lie that you never learn
and I asked you here to this rat-hole world

Home is where the heart stops dead
and I asked you here,
yes I asked you here
children cry for their daily bread
and I asked you here,
yes, I asked you here
see them run
see them hide, from acid rain, official lies amid
movie dreams that fall and die
it's so absurd that you haven't heard
and I asked you here to this rat-hole world.

Cross my heart and hope to die
but I asked you here,
yes I asked you here
will nothing change as time goes by?
well I asked you here,
yes I asked you here

What a world,
what a world
where paper houses tumble down
and concrete towers block the sun
and life is burned by a single word
and I asked you here to this rat-hole world.
