When will we start learning
The world is slowly turning
Life that's so confusin'
clways leads to ruin

Well we all keep waiting for the lights to change
We all keep praying for amazing grace
We all keep betting on that winning race
But we're losing all the time
We're losing all the time

Well I heard way back in 1964
They found her dead on the kitchen floor
The note she left said, I couldn't take no more
Blood was racing for the back door

Well we all keep waiting for the lights to change
We all keep praying for amazing grace
We all keep betting on that winning race
But we're losing all the time
We're losing all the time

When will we start learning
The world is slowly turning
Life that's so confusin'
clways leads to ruin
