You don't like the picture You can't believe in what you see But your future seems as distant As something on TV So you shake your head And talk about it to your friends But it's business as usual Watching as the world ends Can you see the sadness In somebody else's eyes Can you hear above the madness When a starving baby cries Or will you sit around And talk about it with you friends And it's business as usual Watching as the world ends You could get into the picture You could try to turn the tide It might seem impossible But you won't know until you've tried Well you sit around And talk about it with your friends And it's business as usual Is this the way the world ends? Business as usual
