The tide of suffering's sure to rise
You see it coming - o yes you do
And the camera never lies
No the camera never lies

They send the pictures by satellite
Somehow they travel through the skies
To all the homes in America
And the camera never lies
No the camera never lies

Truth you can't disguise
Just open up your eyes
'Cause the camera never lies

We see the faces so innocent
And it should come as no surprise
That the oppression's no accident
We know the camera never lies
No the camera never lies
