if you're scared on the streets
tonight
looking for a place to hide
this is greenwhich mean time
too many people in washington
playing power games they love to play
they're all on greenwhich mean time
it's a world i don't want to know
bowing how low can you go?
hear about the people's problems
they don't want to know
and the businessman in london
and the new york stock exchange
they're all on greenwhich mean time
corporate pollution and greed
in the driver's seat
keeping greenwhich mean time
it's a world i don't want to know
kill each other chasing gold
hear about the world's problems
they don't want to know
i think no matter what time it is
from tokyo to peru
they're on greenwhich mean time
how's the world going to improve
when the dollar continues to rule
and it's always greenwhich mean time
it's a world i don't want to know
kill each other chasing gold
hear about the world's problems
they don't want to know -- and for
every artist out there, there's a
hundred want to be a cop!
