Zeke Manyika – Third World Child

Zeke Manyika – Third World Child Lyrics

Artist: Zeke Manyika
Song: Third World Child

I’m a third world child
And the world is my mother
She has left me behind
To cry and to suffer

While she shines in diamonds
For which my father digs and dies for a living
She forgets the state of her child
Satisfied with a little giving

All day long under the scorching sun
All night long with my hungry dreams
Civilization, progress, where’re you hiding?
Are these just words in your mind

Screaming jets against the midday sun
Spell your hopes and my destruction
I’m a third world child
With tears streaming down my cheeks

Burning earth through my weary feet
No-one seems to care, no-one seems to hear
All day long under the scorching sun
All night long with my hungry dreams

All day long under the scorching sun
All night long with my hungry dreams
