What about sunrise, what about rain, what about all the
things that you said we were to gain...
What about killing fields, is there a time, what about
all the things that you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice, all the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice this crying Earth's weeping shores?
Refren:
Aaaaaaaaaah - uuuuuuuuuuh
What have we done to the world, look what we've done, what
about all the peace that you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields, is there a time, what about
all the dreams that you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice, all the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice this crying Earth's weeping shores
Refren:
Aaaaaaaaaah - uuuuuuuuuuh
I used to dream, I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are, although I know we've drifted far
Refren:
Aaaaaaaaaah - uuuuuuuuuuh

What about forest trails, (ooo, ooo),
Burnt despite our pleas, (What about us)
What about the holy land, (What about it),
Torn apart by creed, (What about us)
What about the common man, (What about us),
Can't we set him free, (What about us)
What about children dying, (What about us),
Can't you hear them cry, (What about us)
Where did we go wrong, (ooo, ooo),
Someone tell me why, (What about us)
What about babies born, (What about it),
What about the days, (What about us)
What about all their joy, (What about us),
What about the man, (What about us)
What about the crying man, (What about us),
What about Abraham, (What was us)
What about death again, (ooo, ooo),
You don't give a damn
