Standard (EADGBE)
WHEN I TURN ON THE TV
I WANNA CLOSE MY EYES
CAUSE I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE
ALL THIS IS REALITY
MOUTHS STARVING EVERYWHERE
FIRST AND SECOND CLASS PEOPLE
WHILE WE FEED OUR EGO
CONSCIENCE IS DYING SOMEWHERE
THE MORE THEY GET
THE MORE THEY NEED
MONEY BUYS GOOD DIGNITY
THIS OLD WORLD HAS TO CHANGE
SOMEHOW THERE MUST BE A
WAY TO BE ABLE TO BREAK
TO BE ABLE TO SHAKE
OUR LIVES, OUR LIES
TO STOP HUNGER AND PAIN
WE KEEP TURNING OUR FACE
UNTIL THERE IS NO TRACE
OF THE BLAME, OF THE SHAME
DEVELOPMENT IS OUR GOD
POWER ITS HOLY BOOK
WORKERS, FIGURES YOU AND I
WITHOUT FACES WITHOUT LIFES
IS IT WHAT WE WAITED FOR?
IS IT WHAT WE WANTED CAUSE
NO ONE ASKED ME ABOUT IT
WHEN DID WE GET SO LOST?
THE MORE THEY GET
THE MORE THEY NEED
MONEY BUYS GOOD DIGNITY
THIS OLD WORLD HAS TO CHANGE
SOMEHOW THERE MUST BE A
(CHORUS)
WHEN I TURN ON THE TV
I WANNA CLOSE MY EYES
CAUSE I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE
ALL THIS IS REALITY
THE MORE THEY GET
THE MORE THEY NEED
MONEY BUYS GOOD DIGNITY
THIS OLD WORLD HAS TO CHANGE
SOMEHOW THERE MUST BE A
