You don't understand
And you don't try to see
That white is too dull
We need the reds and the greens

You're big time now
On New York T.V.
A prime time fool for everyone to see

Can't see a heaven
If the sky isn't clear
You can't change a mind
If it doesn't want to hear

Will we ever get out of here
Stop and think awhile
Another time and another place
Where everyone smiles

You have the rights or
You seem to think
Stopped dead in their tracks
Other people's dreams

All those ideas
Questioned by doubt
I'm telling you man
You better get out

Can't stop the dance
If the song isn't done
You can't stop the change
Outnumbered a hundred to one

Will we ever get out of here
Stop and think awhile
Another time and another place
Where everyone smiles

You don't understand
You don't try to see
You're in the cage
And we've got the key

Can't see the future till it's in front of you
But you can't escape it
The future brings the truth
Will we ever get out of here
Stop and think awhile
Another time and another place
Where everyone smiles
