[Verse 1]
What do you want to be, would you fight for your country?
Leaders say "Why don't you pick up a gun and shoot at somebody?"
But they're only gonna protect you when the dollar sign is right
There's a war in every nation but we turn our heads, deny

[Chorus]
Human rights went on vacation
Money took over a long time ago
Cry for this racial war in all Rwanda's glory
There ain't no glory in a war
Ain't no glory

[Verse 2]
A black man or a white man or an Asian or a Mexican
Or an African or a South African or a Serbian or a Libyan
You're all one race, it's the human race
Just a different smile for a different face
We're all one race, it's the human race
Just a different smile for a different face

[Chorus]
Human rights went on vacation
Money took over a long time ago
Cry for this racial war in all Rwanda's glory
There ain't no glory in a war
Ain't no glory
