Johnny's playroom   Is a bunker filled with sand   He's become a third world man      Smokey Sunday   He's been mobilized since dawn   Now he's crouching on the lawn   He's a third world man      Soon you'll throw down your disguise   We'll see behind those bright eyes   By and by   When the sidewalks are safe   For the little guy      I saw the fireworks   I believed that I was dreaming    'Til the neighbours came out screaming   He's a third world man      [chorus]      When he's crying out   I just sing that Ghana Rondo   E'lera del terzo mondo   He's a third world man      [chorus]
