Standard (EADGBE)

It's alright, it's alright

Cause the system never fails

The good guys are in power

And the bad guys are in jail

It's alright, it's alright

Just as long as we can vote

We live in democracy

And that's what we promote

Isn't it? Isn't it?

Isn't it? Isn't it?

It's alright, it's alright

If the news says half the truth

Hearing what we want is the

secret of eternal youth

It's alright, it's alright,

If the planet splits in three

Cause I'll keep selling records

And you've got your MTV

CORO

If we forget about them don't worry

If they forget about us then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

East Timor, Timor, Timor

It's alright, it's alright

IF they don't show all on TV

So we won't really know it

Just by watching BBC

It's alright, it's alright

For our flag we die or kill

As long as we don't know

We do it just to pay their bills

CORO

If they forget about us then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

East Timor, Timor, Timor

Let’s keep tanning while it's sunny

They'll risk our hides to make their money

Now don't you find that funny?

If they forget about us then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

East Timor, Timor, Timor

If they forget about us then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

East Timor, Timor, Timor

East Timor, Timor, Timor

East Timor
