[Chorus]
People are suffering
I will say it again
People are suffering
I will say it again
People are suffering
I will say it again
So remember when you are looking for trouble
That trouble is already busy with weaker men

[Chorus]
People are hungry
I will say it again
People are hungry
I will say it again
People are hungry
I will say it again
So do not you abuse that body
It will snap without assistance my friends

[Chorus]
The song goes on
I will sing again until the music enervates
The song goes on
The sting of pain will dull and finally fade away
The song goes on
Through centuries of history it reverberates
The song goes on
On curving comets track the music makes it way
This song is so long
It ends up where it begins
[Verse 2]
People are lonely
I will say it again
People are lonely
I will say it again
People are lonely
I will say it again
So do not let them run too far from home
You will be alone for sure on that you can depend

[Chorus]
People are bleeding
I will say it again
People are bleeding
I will say it again
People are bleeding
I will say it again
So put away that switchblade knife
Tighten up the knot that will help this bloodshed end

[Bridge]
The song goes on - the song goes on
This song
Is so long
It ends up where it begins
[Chorus]
People are suffering
I will say it again and again
People are hungry
I will say it again and again
People are lonely
I will say it again and again
