Black babies running for the candy truck in Africa
See them kicking up the dust from miles away
Me drinking Evian, wondering where the hell I am
Looking for the preacher man to just translate
To just translate, to just translateWe eating chicken feet, swear it kinda tastes like meat
Waiting for the Maasai chief to take us in
Flies cover up his face, makes you want to look away
Cannot take another day beneath this heat
Beneath this heatThe world is falling apart and I know in my heart
I don't know what to do about it
The world is bigger than me and I do not believe
Another human being on the planet
The world, the world needs love
Love and nothing else can save us nowBlack babies running from a big hairy elephant
I wish that I had the guts to save the day
Here come the preacher man, he's telling us to run like mad
Leave everything you have and follow meDive in the water hole, don't drink it in you know
You'll die from an overload of some disease
Dive in the water hole, don't drink it in you know
You'll die from an overload of some disease
Some diseaseThe world is falling apart and I know in my heart
I don't know what to do about it
The world is bigger than us and I don't really trust
Another human being on the planet
The world, the world needs loveThe world is falling apart and I know in my heart
I don't know what to do about it
The world is bigger than me and I do not believe
Another human being on the planetThe world is falling apart and I know in my heart
I don't know what to do about it
The world is bigger than us and I don't really trust
Another human being on the planetThe world is falling apart and I know in my heart
I don't know what to do about it
The world is bigger than me and I do not believe
Another human being on the planet
The world, the world needs love
