Let's fix ourselves before we try to fix everyone else

Lyrics

Who Will Relieve U.S.

Take a look around, my friend
It's all over the news
It's all over your I-Pod
It's all over You-Tube

It's all over the world
Their lives in despair
They're hungry and hurting
They're homeless and scared

Take a look around, my friend
You don't need the news
You don't need your I-Pod
You don't need You-Tube

You don't need to go far
There's more of the same
They're hungry and hurting
They're right here on Main Street, U.S.A

So you can pass that plate around
But we can't save the world
When our own house is burning down

We'll get by somehow
But, who will sing for US
Who'll believe in US, who will relieve US now?

(spoken) You want to reach out and do some good?
Don't need to reach past your own neighborhood
That's somebody's father begging for bread
Desperate, unemployed and underfed

Remember the family who lived down the block?
They're in a tent in the city parking lot
So many among US, forgotten and screwed
Unless a big star shows up with a camera crew

And you can pass that plate around
But we can't save the world
When our own house is burning down

We'll get by somehow
But, who will sing for US
Who'll believe in US, who will relieve US

Pass that plate around
But we can't save the world
When our own house is burning down

We'll get by somehow
But, who will sing for US
Who'll believe in US, who will relieve US now?
