Just One World
There is a man in a bar
Drinking a bottle of whisky
And a couple in the hospital
Welcoming a new baby
There is a guy on the beach
Selling cotton candy
There is a woman in court house
Waiting to be set free
We all have to share
Just one world
We all are mix up
Like cereal in a bowl
There is a thunder storm
Coming from the Atlantic Ocean
Evacuation order
Every one leave in hesitation
There is a girl in sears
Trying on all the lipstick
There are children in MacDonald’s
With egg, cheese and biscuit
We all have to share
Just one world
We all are together
Like clay in a mold
There’s a fire in the forest
Burning trees and houses
There’s a woman in India
Trying on some new blouses
And in a city in Iraq
Is a girl with chocolate ice-cream?
And in Thailand
A boy is having a bad dream
We all have to share
Just one world
Just like the colors
Black, white, and gold
