How Can We Do It? - English Lyrics

1st verse:
How can we do it?
How can we do it?
It's so sad to ignore their cries and close our eyes.

How can we do it?
How can we do it?
And they scream and they bleed and die with each thing we buy.

We look away.
There are better causes - what's the fuss?
We look away.
But the blame's on us and only us.

We look away, yet directly,
We cause their bitter end.
For we kill them every time we spend.

2nd verse:
How can we do it?
How can we do it?
Look away, and ignore their cries, believe those lies.

How can we do it?
How can we do it?
And they scream and they bleed and die with each thing we buy.

Don't look away.
Don't ignore the part that you can play.
Don't look away.
You can spend your money other ways.

Don't look away - you are someone.
With your money, you can show
That you want them to be left alone.

That you want them to be left alone.
