keep you poor and ignorant
let you starve and die
all to keep their pockets full
with power, money and lies
in the third world
you won't see a progressing state
in this land corporations rule
it's now way too late

[Chorus]
cause in the 3rd world
no opportunities
in the 3rd world
stuck in between
in the third world
no help from the outside
cause it's a dead world
where you fight to survive

you're washed up in the 3rd world
you work for little pay
no opportunities, no choices
just set backs and delays
now you are left unheard of
you're left without a voice
no way out of this world
kept as their working toy

[Chorus]

ohhhhhh.....in the third world
ohhhhhh.....in the third world
ohhhhhh.....in the third world
ohhhhhh.....in the third world
