who cares

I saw him outside McDonalds
asking people for a sandwich
everybody's ignoring him
including myself
how long can you do it?

Try to stand in his shoes
even just for one day
you will hear me say

who?
cares about you?
who?
cares about you?,
you will hear me say.

try to get a health insurance
ask the 40 million uninsured
see the flip side in real time
it only takes a minute a day
same thing goes for all the other things
they tax your life

who?
cares about you?
who?
cares about you?
who?
cares about you?
who?
cares about you?

thank God for the children
they don't know inhibitions
and just one smile
you get the same in reply
they take it at face value

and they do
they care about you,
some would say,
we do
we care about you.
i can hear they sing
daddy we do
we care about you.


who?
cares about you?
we do
care about you.

talking about that guy outside McDonalds
how long will you help?
will it be for as long as it takes
or will you just turn away?
