HOW COME ?
(Charles Alexander / Wyclef Jean / Youssou N'Dour)

Youssou N'Dour


Yo
As the universe expands
I contemplate whether it was God
or the Big Bang that made man
Sometimes I wonder how come
We cant live without guns
What would of been the outcome if the South won
Think about that son
What in the hell caused the assassination of Malcolm
The federal communications commission
listens to politicians in the position
to Make certain decisions like puttin minorities in prison
To decimating the population of women
It's called socialism
From the United States to the United Kingdom
Aahhkk, spit into the sky and extinguish the sun,
but how come

In the future
The location is planet Earth
The time and date is 1999, December 31st
11:59 p.m., the anticipation of what I think's
about to happen got my heartbeatin
We got less than a minute left before the planet Jupiter
is united into a star
I know it sounds bizarre but it's mathematics
A specific sign for some of the planet's inhabitants
Those who understand know what I'm sayin is accurate
Our country is corrupt from the president to the cabinet
In the year 2, followed by three 0's
The space probe Galileo,
will welcome us all to channel zero
but how come
