That child has a gun, and he's come as far as he could ever come
And play with me, I'll show you truth but a truth that has no love
It's all around, born of you cus' all you do is knock
Hard at my door, bring me fear and famine and another war
(chorus) I'm in an aeroplane but I'm not, no I'm not, here on holiday
I'm in a world of pain, gonna' wish gonna' wish that world away
That man he has a car, a belly full of beer but he just farts
Instead of talk, he sees my world on his T.V. and he laughs
Cus' he is rich and I am poor because his country crafts
This world divide, he goes to church but still my children starve
(chorus)
Wishing the world away; Wishing the world away
Wishing the world away; Wishing the world away
(chorus)
