Текст песни When - Gerard Joling

When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?
When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?

This world is like a motherless child
Ain't nobody taking care
Look at it's eyes about to die
Ain't nobody who's aware

I don't know why
We are sailing
The troubled waters of the Amazon

When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?
When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?

How can we feed
The generations to come?
When everybody's stealin' time
A world of plenty running on empty
We walk the Jericho mile

Let the rain fall
Burn the forest
Do we really know
What time it is?

When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?
When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?

Money can't buy
Money can't buy us time
Money can't buy
Money can't buy us life

How can we feed
The generations to come?
When everybody's stealin' time
A world of plenty running on empty
We walk the Jericho mile

When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?
When, tell me when?
Hey, when will we ever learn?
