[Verse 1]
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear their marching feet
Moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
Well, I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night

[Pre-Chorus]
Too many men, too many people
Giving too many problems
And not much love to go around
Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

[Chorus]
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make this a place worth living in

[Verse 2]
Ooh, Superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
There's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is the land of confusion

[Chorus] x2

Make it a place...
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
This is the world we live in
Oh, I remember long ago
This is the world we live in
Oh, I remember long ago
This is the world we live in
Oh, the sun was shining
