Watch us crawl across your TV screen
To beg for food and water
The role of God, it suits you well
Who lives, who dies, who's slaughtered
Laughing voices on the radio
Tell how much you gave us
For all the good that you think you do
Your charity won't save us
Dream on, dream on
There's a long way still to go
Dream on, dream on
It's a hard row left to hoe
Endless sun and cloudless sky
But heaven has a price
Without the rain to feed the land
It's hell in paradise
