Around the world and across the sea, we hear the cries of poverty,
Here we are in the promise land, but our eyes are closed,
to the outstretched hands,
Look at the super powers, hiding away in their ivory towers,
Won't someone take a chance , on a victim of circumstance,

Living from day to day, fighting the hunger pains,
Third World Romance,
Look at us we've got it all, convenience stores and shopping malls,
A billion dollars for self defense, toys for war build an iron fence,
Look at the super powers, hiding away in their ivory towers,
Won't someone take a chance , on a victim of circumstance

Don't you think it's time for something drastic,
Tear down the walls that keep cold,
This whole damn world can be fantastic,
Give into love and let it show,
Look at the super powers, hiding away in their ivory towers,
Won't someone take a chance , on a victim of circumstance Third World Romance
