Combien combien combien...

How many ears must one person have
before he can hear people cry?
And how many deaths will it take till he knows
that too many people have died?
And how many years can some people exist
before they are allowed to be free?
And hhow many times can a man turn his head
and pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my freind, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind.
