Listen. . .
What do you hear?
I hear the world.
Yes, it is at my fingertips.
Oh, yes, I make it better.
But why should I?
There are plenty of others
Who hear it, too.

Listen. . .
What do you hear?
I hear a baby crying for his mother,
Yet he does not realize
That he has been orphaned by AIDS.
Who will take this child?
Oh, yes, I could.
But why should I?
There plenty of others
Who here the baby's cries.

Listen. . .
What do you hear?
Strange, I hear nothing.
I guess I should had done something.
