One Population -  Music & Lyrics by Chris James 1984


Say hey you government officials

And all the people of all the world

I've got something I want to say to you

And don't get me misunderstood

I'm not gonna be telling you

How to live your lives

But I just want to draw your attention

For a problem for all mankind


Why can't we feed the people

When there's food enough for all

And use some of that technology

For something else than war

We started the United Nations

To solve the problems of the world

Yet 50 years later

Hungry cries can still be heard


Why dont we have one population

Why dont we have one civilisation

If we had one congregation

We would see the same revalation

Cause if we have the same flesh and blood

Then there's a firm foundation

To rid this world

Of war and starvation
