One World (Not Three) - Lyrics by Sting


Lyrics
One world is enough, for all of us

One world is enough, for all of us


It's a subject we rarely mention

But when we do we have this little invention

By pretending they're a different world from me
I show my responsibility

One world is enough, for all of us

One world is enough, for all of us


The third world breathes our air tomorrow

We live on the time we borrow

In our world there's no time for sorrow

In their world there is no tomorrow

One world is enough, for all of us

One world is enough, for all of us


Lines are drawn upon the world

Before we get our flags unfurled

Whichever one we pick

It's just a self deluding trick

One world is enough, for all of us

One world is enough, for all of us

I don't want to bring a sour note

Remember this before you vote

We can all sink or we all float
'
Cause we're all in the same big boat

One world is enough for all of us

One world is enough for all of us

One world is enough for all of us

One world is enough for all of us

It may seem a million miles away

But it gets a little closer everyday

It may seem a million miles away

But it gets a little closer everyday
