Well, they got poor folks down in China, more poor folks in 'Carolina
Seems like lately, there's poor folks most everywhere
Homeless children in New Delhi, old folks livin' on Skid Row, L.A.
Men of war's corporate lackeys actin' like they ain't even there

And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care

Can't afford the gasoline to drive to work no longer there

Neither party up in DC, represents either you or me

An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care

Underneath America's steeple, sit a lot of mis-guided people
'Tryin' to believe in someone often misquoted there
The message is so far from the level, it ain't welcome even by the devil
Unborn babies will be lucky if they never breathe the polluted air

And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care

Veterans lyin' in the gutter, sick folks dyin' with no healthcare

Neither party up in DC, can see the forest or the trees

An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care

Rather than fix highways and pollution, Social Security and Medicare
They pass knee-jerk non-binding resolutions an' build bridges that don't go

anywhere

Looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care

Before we have fair elections and the world no longer lives in fear

The great Alaskan frozen tundra's gonna be warmer than Arizona

An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care

Before they care, long before they care

And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, long before they care *

* Dedicated to We The People of the 21st Century, victims of the most corrupt, knee-jerk and totally incompetant congress in the history of the United States, if not the world.
