Everywhere I go people are the same
No what their color, culture or their claim
There's always someone there who will cause to bring you shame
Everywhere I go people are the same
Countries I have been, events that I have seen
Convince me we're all mortal and we all feel pain
No matter how differ in custom or in aim
There's always a fucking border cop who wants to know your name
[Chorus:]
Coz they'll hate you for everything you are
They'll hate you for everything your not
They'll hate you for everything you know
But mostly they'll have you for what you don't
(But mostly they'll hate for hate you don't have)
Every group of people, every place I go
There's always some fucking asshole and someone I'd like to know
(Just not you!)
I pledge allegiance to the Earth and everyone it holds
We inhabit this big old planet - it's tiny, somehow
Now I restrain myself from judgement or projection
Coz usually when people speak
It shatters my pre-conceptions
Regardless of religion or skin pigmentation
We all sing the human nationality anthem
[Chorus:]
I pledge my allegiance to the earth
We're an international generation
And we're a global nation
Look into the universe, tell me we are not the same
Who will write the anthem in earth's name?
They are them, We are us - and that is Thus
Leaving no room for trust
There is no them and us, there is just us
Soon to be dust
[Chorus:]
