One World (Not Three) Lyrics - Sting & Police
Review The Song (1)
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us
It's a subject we rarely mention
But when we do we have this little invention
By pretending they're a different world from me
I show my responsibility
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us
The third world breathes our air tomorrow
We live on the time we borrow
In our world there's no time for sorrow
In their world there is no tomorrow
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us
Lines are drawn upon the world
Before we get our flags unfurled
Whichever one we pick
It's just a self deluding trick
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us
I don't want to bring a sour note
Remember this before you vote
We can all sink or we all float
'Cause we're all in the same big boat
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday
It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday

Ahead of his time. | Reviewer: smorgdonkey | 8/30/2004
Sting was ahead of his time with many songs that he wrote often influencing the subconscious of the listener with social consciousness in the lyrics. One World (Not Three) carries the message of unity among people and even a hint of disdain for the labelling of countries according to their economic development into separate worlds. Before 'Band-Aid' and 'U.S.A. For Africa' Sting had spoken about these topics through his lyrics in songs such as this one and 'Driven To Tears' in which he states "too many cameras and not enough food". A lyric genius, (if there is such a thing) Sting always had unique content in the words which he wrote whether or not the listener had the attention to detail to absorb the message within or to do some research to find out what he was attempting to say in the songs.
