Melanesia is a subregion of Oceania extending from the western end of the Pacific Ocean to the Arafura Sea, and eastward to Fiji. The region comprises most of the islands immediately north and northeast of Australia. The name Melanesia (from Greek: μέλας black; νῆσος, islands) was first used by Jules Dumont d'Urville in 1832 to denote an ethnic and geographical grouping of islands distinct from Polynesia and Micronesia.
The term Melanesia has "fuzzy edges" and can be used in either an anthropological or a geographical context. In the former, the term refers to one of the three regions of Oceania whose pre-colonial population generally belongs to one ethno-cultural family as a result of centuries of maritime migrations. The geographic conception of Melanesia is used as a reference to the area where political, ethnic, and linguistic distinctions are not relevant.
The term is also present in geopolitics, where the Melanesian Spearhead Group Preferential Trade Agreement is a regional trade treaty involving the states of Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and Fiji.

We smelled your soup on the fire cooking
We saw your toys and your pencils looking bright
So bright and yet they come from oh so far away
We heard your flags and your banners flapping
We felt the air from from your hands all clapping time
In time, I'm sure your time is not so far away
Millions, all moving forward
Millions, all babbling crossword
Millions, all flow at water
Millions, all bright with laughter
He make you glowing
He bake you golden like a yangtse mud
I saw your writing on paper landing
Your stamps showed bridges and temples standing still
So still, and yet they're standing oh so far away
I saw you asking for western thinking
I say it's poison that you'll be drinking
Always complaining
Scared by the past
Need someone to blame
You'll never last
Put you in your place
Haunted by your face
Fear of what you are
Guilty by far
Marching for your rights
These forgotten ways
You don't realize
This time no one pays
Society, can't you see
You're no different than me
Betrayed by your own kind
Not just facts but reality
Overpopulation
They breed like rats
Standing for one nation
Under a God who laughs
Always...
...you'll never last
Condemned, by what you've become
Criminally infested
Guilty, for all you have done
Surround by millions
Society...
Overpopulation...
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way of a half-million murderers
And he came by the way of a long list of ironies
And he came by the way of the road to Sioux City
And he came by the way of the half-breeds and lesbians
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he thought it
Was in there but still wasn't happy,
He knew it was less than the way that it could be
But undaunted unshaven and an eagle in britches he
Set out again to unveil the earth's riches
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that I said I was leaving,
The way that I'd take if I really was going
If I had a map, that is why I'm delaying
And if it wasn't in there I'd surely be staying
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked

And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he thought it
Was in there but still wasn't happy,
He knew it was less than the way that it could be
But undaunted unshaven and an eagle in britches he
Set out again to unveil the earth's riches
And he came by the way that he walked

And he came by the way that he walked
If I can just make it up there,
and if I can walk through that city bright and fair;
there'd probably be a thousand things
I want to tell the Lord on that day.
I'll just begin to cry,
You'll wipe the tears from my eyes,
I'll say thanks, You'll ask why,
this will be my reply, You know...
Chorus:
Millions didn't make it,
but I was one of the ones who did.
Millions didn't make it,
but I was one of the ones who did.
Verse 2:
There'd probably be a thousand things
that I wanna tell the Lord on that day.
I'll just begin to cry,
You'll wipe the tears from my eyes,
I'll say thanks, You'll ask why,
this will be my reply, You know...
Vamp 1:
Millions didn't make it,
but I was one of the ones who did.
Millions didn't make it,
one of the ones who did.
Millions didn't make it,
but I was one of the ones...
(You see) I made it over,
(I came through hard trials and tribulations, persecutions);
(I was one of the ones who did).
Vamp 2:

Million of times you cry
Million of times you smile
Baby, baby, tell me why
Everytime it is a lie.
A million of girls can touch,
A million of boys that watch
Millions of boys and girls together
Swear their love will last forever.
Millions of days and nights
Millions of boys and girls say lies
Baby, tell me why do you lie?
Everytime you seem to cry.
Refren(x2):
You are, you are lying
Always keep on crying
You are, you are lying
You are, you are lying...

A million of times I need you
A million of times I'll hld you
Baby, say me no more lies
I love you million of times.

Millions and millions and millions

they got death and birth
millions and millions and millions
of years came and went
millions and millions and millions
of lives have all been spent
without no rent
they didn't have to pay no rent
chorus:
the whole world isn't ready
the whole world isn't ready to sing along
the whole world isn't ready at all
millions and millions and millions
of stars up above
millions and millions and millions
of ways to show your love
when push comes to shove
you gotta show your love
millions and millions and millions
of songs yet to be sung
millions and millions and millions
of hearts yet to be won
they don't have no fun
and we're all one
chorus
love, love, love is the only thing worth a damn
and love, love, love makes me who i am
not uncle sam
he doesn't know who i am
I open my umbrella
And i put on my coat
And a waterproof make-up
Just the way i've been told
I put my favorite dress on
And the best of my socks
Take a bath and a shower
And the soap from the box
With one hand at the papers
I stir around in my cup
Put bread in the toaster
And the juice in the mug
There could come millions of you
And i might trip but would not fall
As i look out the window
It's chucking it down
And i pull up the curtain
I hear the noise of my town
Wipe the sleep off my eyes
I switch off the clock
Had the funniest dream
Click clock tick tock
There could come millions of you
