Hungry Child.  Words/Music  Peter Madden

Hungry child hey don't you deny me
Business man who's standing beside me
lack of funds adds complications to my world

Hungry child is crying for mama
Mama's standing there with a banner
Start a protest your in the slammer right away

How's about a little more compassion
But instead of a fare go they gave me a thrashing

Hungry child hey don't you deny me
Business man who's standing beside me
Hungry child is crying for mama
Mama's standing there with a banner

Mid day sun is going to fry me
county court is going to try me
Secret police are going to lie
Hey that's my world.

Crushing dept loan that we're repaying
to the world bank means that I'm staying
in the filth here that I'm displaying in third world

How's about a little more compassion
But instead of a fare go they gave me a thrashing

Hungry child hey don't you deny me
Business man who's standing beside me
Hungry child is crying for mama
Mama's standing there with a banner
Mid day sun is going to fry me
county court is going to try me
Crushing dept loan that we're repaying
to the world bank means that I'm staying
How dare you
Please remember that's my world
How dare you
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
Please remember that's my world
