Lyrics
BEFORE THEY CARE Well, they got poor folks down in China, more poor folks in 'Carolina Seems like lately, there's poor folks most everywhere Homeless children in New Delhi, old folks livin' on Skid Row, L.A. Men of war's corporate lackeys actin' like they ain't even there And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care Can't afford the gasoline to drive to work no longer there Neither party up in DC, represents either you or me An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care Underneath America's steeple, sit a lot of mis-guided people 'Tryin' to believe in someone often misquoted there The message is so far from the level, it ain't welcome even by the devil Unborn babies will be lucky if they never breathe the polluted air And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care Veterans lyin' in the gutter, sick folks dyin' with no healthcare Neither party up in DC, can see the forest or the trees An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care Rather than fix highways and pollution, Social Security and Medicare They pass knee-jerk non-binding resolutions an' build bridges that don't go anywhere Looks like hell's gonna freeze over before they care Before we have fair elections and the world no longer lives in fear The great Alaskan frozen tundra's gonna be warmer than Arizona An' it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, before they care Before they care, before they care And it looks like hell's gonna freeze over, long before they care
