It's a ghetto It's a ghetto This is a ghetto This is a ghetto This is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto? Yeah, yeah, yeah It's true That for me, that for me And for you and for you This is a ghetto, ghetto You know it's a ghetto Don't you know that this world Is a ghetto? Yes, it is
