Whatever happened to human rights

in the land of free, in the land of might

at the end of the till an old man

is filling up a paper bag



'cause whatever age you're at

some societies still make you fight

no one there to support your sunset

age don't bring no more respect



how can you still believe

that you can save the world

you'd need humanity

show us some, now can you



in the land of free in the land of might

in the land of fear in the land of might



a black man hails a cab

new york city is getting hot

but not one will stop to pick him

as if his colour were a sin



and maybe i sound like

some 60s' folk singer's come back

singing human love is so naïve

but have we learned a single thing
