I went to the Ukraine
|
They don't have much to eat
|
No sugar on the table
|
But the people stay sweet
|
I've been to the third world
|
They've got nothing but hope
|
Through the starving and dying
|
Sometimes somehow they cope
|
|
It was a revelation - a revelation -
|
A revelation to me
|
|
I've been to the u.s.
|
Promised land of the free
|
With the workless and homeless
|
Begging on every street
|
|
It was a revelation - a revelation -
|
A revelation to me
|
|
Revelation, it was a revelation
|
|
And right here in Europe
|
Far as can be seen
|
Butter mountains and wine lakes
|
That much food it's obscene
|
|
Now you can label me stupid
|
Or naive with this song
|
But when children are starving
|
I know what's right and what's wrong
|
|
It was a revelation - a revelation -
|
A revelation to me
|
