Charity, all the world really needs is charity
We're living in a dream.
I'll plead with you all till it tears me apart
Is this all that we want? Is this all that we really are?
Hey, if you want, turn away if you want, turn away if you like
For the rest of your life, every day, every night
In your house and your car, yes I know who you are
Can you not hear the world in its pain trying to call to you?
Oh oh, charity, we're living in a dream
(Charity) can't fool me with your vanity
I've seen what's in your heart.
I'll plead with you all till it tears me apart
Is this all that we want? This is all that we really are.
Will our hearts ever change? Does it sound so strange?
When people touch children cry, can you not wonder why?
In your own little world, can you not say a word?
Try to help someone else on the search or a**ert yourself.
Oh oh, charity, we're living in a dream
(Charity) can't fool me with your vanity
I've seen what's in your heart.
(Charity) all the world really needs is charity.
Is this all that we want? Is this all we really are?
