[Verse 1]
Hot winds and hunger cries, Ethiopia
Flies in your babies' eyes, Ethiopia
Walking sticks on burning plains
Betrayed by politics, abandoned by the rains
[Chorus 1]
On and on, the human need
On and on, the human greed profanes
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
[Verse 2]
Your topsoil flies away, Ethiopia
We pump ours full of poison spray, Ethiopia
Between the brown skies and sprinkling lawns
I hear the whine of chainsaws hacking rainforests down
[Chorus 2]
On and on, insanities
On and on, short-sighted greed abounds
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
[Bridge]
Little garden planet, oasis in space
Some hearts hurt, they can hardly stand it
Famine phantoms at the garden gates
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Hot winds and hunger cries, Ethiopia
Flies in your babies' eyes, Ethiopia
Walking sticks on burning plains
Betrayed by politics, abandoned by the rains
[Chorus 1]
On and on, the human need
On and on, the human greed profanes
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
[Verse 2]
Your topsoil flies away, Ethiopia
We pump ours full of poison spray, Ethiopia
Between the brown skies and sprinkling lawns
I hear the whine of chainsaws hacking rainforests down
[Chorus 2]
On and on, insanities
On and on, short-sighted greed abounds
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
[Bridge]
Little garden planet, oasis in space
Some hearts hurt, they can hardly stand it
Famine phantoms at the garden gates
Ethiopia, Ethiopia, Ethiopia
