How many people
Stand in a line
How many people
Never get a chance to shine
If you can tell me I'll gladly listen
How many people have died
One too many right now for me
I want to be happy, I want to be free
One too many right now for me
I want to see ordinary people living peacefully
How many people
How many people
Never make it through to the other side
How many people will it take
How many people for goodness' sake
How many people, how many people
