THINK ABOUT THE PEOPLE Tell me why half the population is dying from hunger And the rest is living on the streets Why all of the more fortunate Shun all the poor that they meet Why we�re trying to help other people Like the Kosovo thing where we tried to help out Yet we can�t even lend a dime to those whom Harlem Who know what pain is all about? It just doesn�t make sense Why we can�t think about the people When love is our foundation And sharing should be our steeple So next time someone is laying on the walk And begging for a piece of bread Think about the people Instead of turning your head
