I am not afraid of life Of the poor man's struggle Of the killer's knife I am not afraid of life Of an insane rage Of the minimum wage I am not afraid of life I am not afraid of life I am not afraid of life But I see an old lady with a shopping bag And I wonder is life a drag I am not afraid of life But it hurts so bad I feel so mad No one see the truth There's nothing to gain A life goes down the drain Don't want to die at an early age I am not afraid of life I am not afraid of life But I see a street crazy shivering with cold Is it a crime to be old There's the threat of the nuclear bomb We know it's wrong We know it's wrong Is there a chance for peace Will the fighting ever cease Mankind's almost out of luck A maniac could blow us up I am not afraid of life I am not afraid of life But I get down on my knees and I pray Is there hope for the world today
