People are suffering, I'll say it again
People are suffering, I'll say it again
People are suffering, I'll say it again
So, remember when you're looking for trouble
That trouble is already busy with weaker men

People are hungry, I'll say it again
People are hungry, I'll say it again
People are hungry, I'll say it again
So, don't you abuse that body
It'll snap without assistance, my friends

(The song goes on)
I'll sing again until the music enervates
(The song goes on)
The sting of pain will dull and finally fade away
(The song goes on)
Through centuries of history it reverberates
(The song goes on)
On curving comets track the music makes it way

This song is so long
It ends up where it begins

People are lonely, I'll say it again
People are lonely, I'll say it again
People are lonely, I'll say it again
So, don't let them run too far from home
You'll be alone for sure on that you can depend

People are bleeding, I'll say it again
People are bleeding, I'll say it again
People are bleeding, I'll say it again
So put away that switchblade knife
Tighten up the knot that'll help this bloodshed end

(The song goes on)
(The song goes on)
(The song goes on)
(The song goes on)

This song is so long
It ends up where it begins

People are suffering
I'll say it again and again and again and again
People are hungry
I'll say it again and again and again and again
People are lonely
I'll say it again and again and again and again

I'll say it again and again and again and again
I'll say it again and again and again and again
I'll say it again and again and again and again
I'll say it again and again and again and again
