[Verse 1]
Come to my aid, you're sweet as everything
Come to my aid, I'd give you anything
I feel so betrayed by a people I love
Come to my aid, it's you I’m thinking of
Prouder than wild, sad enough to sing
Come to my aid and care for social living
[Chorus]
Why are we liable to die for survival?
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid, come to my aid
Come to my aid, come to my aid
[Verse 2]
In the poverty stakes see just what it means
When welfare decimates you’d better care
About your fellow people
[Chorus]
Why are we liable to die for survival?
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid, come to my aid
Come to my aid, come to my aid
My aid, my aid, my aid, my aid
Come on board, come on board
Come on board, come on board
You better come on board, you better come on board
You better come on board, you better come on board
Come to my aid, you're sweet as everything
Come to my aid, I'd give you anything
I feel so betrayed by a people I love
Come to my aid, it's you I’m thinking of
Prouder than wild, sad enough to sing
Come to my aid and care for social living
[Chorus]
Why are we liable to die for survival?
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid, come to my aid
Come to my aid, come to my aid
[Verse 2]
In the poverty stakes see just what it means
When welfare decimates you’d better care
About your fellow people
[Chorus]
Why are we liable to die for survival?
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid, come to my aid
Come to my aid, come to my aid
My aid, my aid, my aid, my aid
Come on board, come on board
Come on board, come on board
You better come on board, you better come on board
You better come on board, you better come on board
