Hang out the flags a new world order's on the way
/9
Start singing now a song to greet the joyful day
Just when we thought the time was right for celebrating
/9
With music of the spheres
What's this - another boat of fleeing refugees on
/9
A sea of children's tears
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
/9
We're only men and women doing what we can
/9
Sometimes I think that God is working to a plan
Then other times I swear that he is improvising
/9
Discordant and remote
Another orphan baby in failed uprising
/9
Another real bum note
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
And if you're listening up there
You could consider this a prayer
Well who am I to tell you how to run your business
/9
Man, you could strike me blind
What kind of noise we gotta make down here before we
/9
Destroy your peace of mind
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
Once more the sound of crying
Is number one across the earth
