Lyrics

'SAVE DARFUR'
Are we so numb ,we don't feel anymore.
Why in the world won't we help Darfur.
We can't ignore , we just can't close the door.
Why in our hearts won't we save Darfur.

See the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies oh so frail.
Hear the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies oh so frail.
And after all the war must end.
The loss of innocence .
We've gotta make a stand and
lend a helping hand to this
but all forgotten land.

Are we so blind , we can't see anymore.
Why in our hearts won't we save Darfur.
We can't ignore , we just can't close the door.
Why in the world won't we save Darfur.

See the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies , oh so frail.
Hear the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies oh so frail.
Tears of misery stain their face.
In this their dying place.
We liberate some oil.
With hands corrupt and soiled.
The situation is insane.

Are we so numb we can't feel anymore.
Why in our hearts won't we help Darfur.
We can't ignore, we just can't close the door.
Why in the world won't we save Darfur.

See the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies oh so frail.
Hear the little babies wail.
Their starving bodies oh so frail.
Our leaders they don't give a damn.
They have to make a stand
and lend a helping hand.
Can't take this anymore.
We've gotta save Darfur.
We've gotta feed the dying poor.
We're gotta save Darfur.
