(Verse)
+
Predators hunt them
+
Governments tell lies
+
Frightened they cower
+
And a hungry child cries
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
(Verse)
+
A thousand little faces
+
Vacant as they stare
+
No idea why they suffer
+
Nor do they really care
+
They are simple farmers
+
Farming an ancient land
+
Against modern weapons
+
What chance do they stand
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
(Verse)
+
It's not often in the papers
+
Some say it's all just lies
+
Rarely seen on any news
+
A hungry child still cries
+
Farmers feed the cannons
+
Women run the farm
+
No hope with no resources
+
The people left to starve
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
(Verse)
+
Still they farm a parched land
+
To produce a minimal yield
+
But no mater what they grow
+
Some army will always steal
+
They fight against the hardship
+
That attempts to destroy their lives
+
As they battle drought or war
+
A hungry child still cries
+
We all rush around madly
+
(In) our so busy city streets
+
No time to spare anyone
+
While we earn our keep
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
They whisper all their lies
+
While a hungry child still cries
+
(Verse)
+
Where is the white dove
+
Is there no one to right a wrong
+
The vultures circle waiting
+
Till all their strength is gone
+
To not care, close you mind
+
To not see, close your eyes
+
Don't believe and do nothing
+
A hungry child still cries
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
They whisper all their lies
+
While a hungry child still cries
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
(Chorus)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
They whisper all their lies
+
While a hungry child still cries
+
(Outro)
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
A hungry child still cries
+
