Poor girl, nowhere to go
Your cup is empty and the time passes slow
No calls, who really cares
You've got the feeling that you're going nowhere
Poor girl, no place in the sun
And television isn't really much fun
blinds drawn, you can't find a friend
Sometimes you wonder where it's all going to end
When things go wrong
And troubles make you sigh
You stand your ground
Hold your head up high
Poor world, down on your knees
They burn your forests
They pour oil on your seas
Poor world, hole in your sky
Your towers are falling and your rivers run dry
When things go wrong
And troubles make you sigh
You stand your ground
Hold your head up high
And never say die
Never say die
Poor girl, how can you be free
When everybody's tying chains on your feet
Sometimes you break down and cry
You'll only make it if you never say die
When things go wrong
And troubles make you sigh
You stand your ground
Hold your head up high
And never say die
Never say die
