Too Little, Too Late 歌词

Many fled to Zaire for the fear of being killed in the vicious, Bloody civil war that took half a million lives Over two milion refugees pile into neighboring countries towns Hoping to escape their deaths but this is what they found Bodies stacked in massive piles and mass graves overflowing As the cholera camps are waiting for the aid to finally come The Rwandan refugees are dying by the thousands every day While clean water needed to preserve life is supposedly on it's way Too little, too late We are all responsible for the third world we create Now we try to help these people but we're too fucking late Too little, too late We control the third world's fate Our high standard of living contributes to their deaths And the truth behind the bloodshed is what our government protects But the fault is also ours because we're killing with our greed For our material possessions we confuse our wants with need The companies and the media promote these capitalist views, Praising the American way of life, never asking at whose expense So if you think we're helping then you're really fucking blind Because we're after special interests and the rest we leave behind Too little, too late We are all responsible for the third world we create Now we try to help these people but we're too fucking late Too little, too late We control the third world's fate Haitian and Cuban refugees try to find a better life only to be denied Entry to the United States because our government doesn't deem it necessary To help our fellow man, so if they can't make us money They don't want them in our land Panama and Nicaragua were some to receive our "aid", So what kind of difference did we make beside the loss of lives? And how is life in BOSNIA? Did the problems disapear? And what about Rwanda is their water now crystal clear? Too little, too late We are all responsible for the third world we create Now we try to help these people but we're too fucking late Too little, too late We control the third world's fate
