[00:00.71]There goes one baby's life
[00:03.55]It's such a small amount
[00:06.29]She's un-American
[00:09.02]I guess it doesn't count
[00:11.81]Six thousand children's lives
[00:14.66]Were simply thrown away
[00:17.35]Lost without medicine
[00:20.28]Inside of thirty days
[00:23.32]In the New York harbour
[00:25.95]Where the stock's withheld
[00:28.54]It was the price we paid
[00:31.48]For a safer world
[00:34.07]World is suffering
[00:36.86]World is suffering
[00:39.65]World is suffering
[00:42.49]World citizen
[00:48.31]In Madhya Pradesh
[00:51.05]Where they're building dams
[00:53.73]They're displacing native people
[00:56.58]From their homes and lands
[00:59.52]So they hunger strike
[01:01.96]Cos they believe they count
[01:04.69]To lose a single life
[01:07.43]Is such a small amount
[01:10.56]In the name of progress
[01:13.65]And democracy
[01:16.88]The concepts represented in name only
[01:21.86]His world is suffering
[01:24.60]Her world is suffering
[01:27.29]Their world is suffering
[01:30.13]World citizen
[01:32.57]World citizen
[01:46.86]And the buildings fall
[01:49.65]In a cloud of dust
[01:52.50]And we ask ourselves
[01:55.23]How could they hate us?
[01:57.62]Well, when we live in ignorance and luxury
[02:03.50]While our super powers practice
[02:06.64]Puppet mastery
[02:09.92]We raise the men
[02:12.01]Who run the fascist states
[02:14.95]And we sell them arms
[02:17.55]So they maintain their place
[02:20.88]We turn our backs
[02:22.92]On the things they done
[02:26.45]Their human rights record
[02:28.74]And the guns they run
[02:31.34]His world is suffering
[02:33.98]Her world is suffering
[02:36.87]Their world is suffering
[02:39.60]World citizen
[02:42.45]My world is suffering
[02:45.14]Your world is suffering
[02:48.02]Our world is suffering
[02:50.71]World citizen
[02:56.44]Who'll do away with flags?
[02:59.78]Who'll do us proud?
[03:02.07]Remove the money from their pockets
[03:04.95]Scream dissent out loud?
[03:08.14]Cos god ain't on our side
[03:11.18]The shoe won't fit
[03:13.13]And though they think the war is won
[03:15.86]That's not the last of it
[03:19.00]Disenfranchised people
[03:21.59]Need their voices heard
[03:24.48]And if no one stops to listen
[03:27.07]Lose their faith in words
[03:30.40]And violence rises
[03:32.49]When all hope is lost
[03:35.59]Who'll embrace the human spirit
[03:38.28]And absorb the cost?
[03:49.74]Not one life is taken
[03:54.38]In my name
[03:56.87]In my name
[04:03.67]His world is suffering
[04:06.41]Her world is suffering
[04:09.36]Their world is suffering
[04:12.14]World citizen
[04:14.73]My world is suffering
[04:17.47]Your world is suffering
[04:20.30]Our world is suffering
