Текст Janet Jackson — State Of The World
5 a.m., rise and shine
To feed the baby before he starts to cry
No rest and time to play
15, the mother is a runaway
No time for dreams or goals
Pressure is so strong
Her body she has sold
So her child can eat
What is happening
To this world we live in
In our home and other lands
Drugs and crime spreadin’ on the streets
People can’t find enough to eat
Now our kids can’t go out and play
That’s the state of the world today
State of the world
Lil’ Johnny all alone
His only friend, the doll he carries with him
Goes to school each and everyday
To be teased because he has no place to stay
This young and homeless boy feels his life is worthless
Instead of suicide he cries himself to sleep
And it’s happenin’ to this world we live in
There’s got to be a better way
Drugs and crime spreadin’ on the streets
People can’t find enough to eat
Now our kids can’t go out and play
That’s the state of the world today
State of the world, uh uh uh
Hoo
Today, uh uh uh
D-dday D-dday
Nation
Can’t give up hope now
Let’s weather the storm to-together
Drugs and crime spreadin’ on the streets
People can’t find enough to eat
Now our kids can’t go out and play
That’s the state of the world today
Drugs and crime spreadin’ on the streets
People can’t find enough to eat
Now our kids can’t go out and play
That’s the state of the world today
Drugs and crime spreadin’ on the streets (Spreadin’ on the streets)
People can’t find enough to eat (Stop it people)
Now our kids can’t go out and play (Even walk the streets)
That’s the state of the world today
State of the world today hey hey hey
That’s the state of the world today
That’s the state
That’s the state of the world today
