Poverty, hunger, war and strike
this is what our world is like
raping, killing, abuse and lies
children starving, can hear their cries
murder, deception, terror and theft
this world of ours is not the best
evil, wicked, unfair and untrue
people can't do what they want to do

People can't walk streets anymore
there's always too much fright
tell me, where is the justice in something like that?
they can't even go out at night

Children can't play in street anymore
it's too risky and too bad
tell me, where is the justice in something like that?
it is so very sad

Pensioners can't answer the door anymore
people conning and lying
tell me, where is the justice in something like that?
a frail old woman crying

We don't live in a fair world, it's full of crime and hate
something does need doing about it all, because one day
it'll be too late.
