Today is just another day
I'll go to work, I'll earn my pay.
Meanwhile in another place they'll slay
More innocents.

I live in comfort, life is good
I only wish that others could
Peacefully earn a livelihood.
It makes no sense.

Here a famine, there a war
Daily mayhem, blood and gore
Scenes to shake you to the core
Have no defence.

Seems that those that have the power
Are just intent on getting more.
Hold your ground and damn the poor
Who live in tents.

We solve our problems violently
The world's uncertain, people flee
Then we blame the refugee.
It makes no sense.

It happens in another place.
A sea of troubles I can't face.
I'll go to work, I'll earn my pay.
They'll kill more innocents today.
