Two men on the street
  Drinking something cheap
  No home, no family
  It's cold, nowhere to sleep
  Passers-by never catch their eye
  Anywhere, one man drinks, the other swears
  
  You know where you went wrong
  You know where you went wrong
  (Aaaah) You know
  You know where you went wrong
  You know where you went wrong
  (Aaaah) You know
  
  The old man can't understand
  No one will shake his hand
  I gave security, bombs and colour TV
  It cost a few lives
  Someone's son always dies
  No one shakes his hand
  He don't understand
  
  You know where you went wrong
  You know where you went wrong
  (Aaaah) You know
  You know where you went wrong
  You know where you went wrong
  (Aaaah) You know
  
  This is the history of the world
  Of every boy and every girl
  Who don't understand what's going on anymore
  The history of the world
  Of every boy and every girl
  Who don't understand what's going on anymore
  (What's going on?)
  
  Two girls have a photograph
  One looks, the other laughs
  He could have been mine
  Why did I change my mind?
  Then hands on hips
  The other girl says: Admit! Admit!
  
  You know where you went wrong

  (Aaaah) You know
  You know where you went wrong
  You know where you went wrong
  (Aaaah) You know
  
  This is the history of the world (of the world)
  Of every boy and every girl
  Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
  what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
  The history of the world (Ooooh)
  Of every boy and every girl (Every boy and girl)
  Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
  what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
