Lyrics for One World (Not Three)
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 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 It may seem a million miles away But it gets a little closer everyday One world One-one world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world One world
