Lyrics
Michael Jackson & Gabriel Baldovin-Political and musical duet
(Remake of original Michael Jackson song „They don't care about us”
There won’t be a better place in this world as long as we’ll be governed by politicians, Michael. They keep threatening us in order to become more profitable, to work harder and to make a better life for them and only for them. Because the rest of the world live in the misery… you know. I am sorry but this is the truth: they don't care about us. We are their proprieties; we’re just animals for them. They don't care about us.
They beat you, hated you
And, you see, they broke you.
Willed you, thrilled you,
Finally they killed you.
They threatened you, sued you
And, you see, they did you.
Kicked you, hit you
And they blacked white you
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
For their fortune, their profit
They could do anything.
Close yo’ look to building 7
Inside job 9/11,
Pearl Harbor, Vietnam-
Frightening America-
Make you scared, make you shy,
Join the army and die.
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
Come on Mike, say it!
Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came
Michael, you’re just an object for them.
They needed your image to gain people’s trust
And bring them to a false illusion of vote
So to make this horrible, horrible social system to look like it has been built by us.
We know it is not.
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
They keep fooling us. Now listen!
US people are against Iraqi war,
But US troops continued to fight there,
So tell me could this be called democracy?
With press control and information distortion
They only show those who support their own version
And minimize the antiwar majority.
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no
I am not so sure about that.
You saw what happened to him after all.
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody's gone mad
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, George Bush senior, junior, Barrack Obama, Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, Kim Young II, Putin, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Nixon, Hitler, Stalin and all of them….
They are all fucking liars.
They fool us on being on our side;
But they fight against us so we end up as their slaves,
To support their fancy lives for their clans and their families.
The world is a simple toy for them and we are their servants.
That is the truth my friend and that is what destroyed you.
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
trepidation, speculation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
black man, black male
Throw your brother in jail
Come on, Mike!
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Rise and shine like you used to do, man!
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Tell people the truth man!
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Let them know the world we live in!
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
…We live in a state of fear…
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Tell’em how building 7 fell down!
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
…Everyday we hear of war…
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
…how they cerate wars just to keep on their power!
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
…We hear nations hurting each other…
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Tell them how they destroy our planet!
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
We have to stop the prejudices!
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
How we work hard to support their luxury life …
They call it democracy
But it’s just new slavery.
We have to stop living in fear of our own neighbors!
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Don’t let yourself fooled by politicians Michael…
’cause that breaks down your mind!

I can't believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see

Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Some things in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Kick me, strike me
Don't you wrong or right me
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Exeter Stadium Speech (June 14, 2002)
Hello everybody. Hello to you wonderful people of Exeter. To the great supporters of the Exeter City Football Club. Welcome to all the great fans that have come from here and far. To all you children.
I’m very happy, very happy to be here with you today. Today, today we come here to support children. We come here to support children with AIDS. To help, to help beyond these of those affected by HIV and AIDS.
We more help them to build a good future. All of us working together for them. A future without prejudice. For these children and their families.
We are here to support and help the people of Africa to find a solution in the fight against the swear of HIV AIDS ... and malaria ... through education and awareness, we aim at conviction but we help with cure.
We are here to support you, the supporters and players of this great football club.
Sadly, sadly, we live in a state of fear. Everyday we hear of war on the news, on the radio and television and the newspapers, always of war.
We hear of nations hurting each other, of neighbours hurting each other, of families hurting each other and the children killing each other.
We must learn to live and love each other before it’s too late. We have to stop! We have to stop the prejudice, we have to stop the hating, we have to stop living in fear of our own neighbours.
I would like all of you now to take the hand of the person to the left and to the right. Go ahead! Right now! I mean it! Don’t be shy! Do it! It starts now! To the person next to you. To the left and the right. I mean it. Right now! Go ahead! Don’t be shy. Do it! Do it! Now, tell the person ... tell the person next to you that you care for them. Tell them that you care for them. Tell them that you love them. Tell them that you love them. This is what makes the difference.
Together ... (Michael laughing) ... (audience screaming) ... together we can make a change of the world. Together we can help to stop racism.
Together we can help to stop prejudice. We can help the world live without fear. It’s our only hope, without hope we are lost.
(Applause, somebody in the audience screams: Who’s gonna win on Saturday?)
England is gonna win? I believe you, I believe you. You know ... I know nothing about sports but I believe you.
Hmmm, thank you all, thank you Exeter.
I’m very proud and happy to be here. Thank you Exeter Football Club.
Thanks to all the wonderful fans ... (Michael looking into the stadium)... I see Israel, I see Spain, I see countries all over the world. I love you!
Thank you to all my team.
And a special thanks to David Blaine ...the world’s greatest. To Patti Boulaye and to the great Uri Geller and Matt Fides ...the man.
We thank them and all the other performers.
Please join me in giving them a great cheer.
And, most importantly ... (balloons are let in the air) - That’s beautiful. That’s a sign of hope. That’s for all the children of the world.
I love you. And thank you for everything
All my love
And God Bless!!"
