The World is a Ghetto
Lyrics 
Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
Crying in the night, teary-eyed

The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
Crying in the night, teary-eyed
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
That for me and for you
That for me and for you
Somewhere there's a home, sweet and nice
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
Wonder when I'll find paradise
Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Don't you know that it's true
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed

That for me and for you
Never give it up now I guess
The world is a ghetto
That for me and for you
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
The world is a ghetto
