25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up
That great big hill of hope
For a destination

I realized quickly
When I knew I should
That the world was made
Up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all
Out what's in my head
And I, I am feeling
A little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath
And I get real high
And I scream
From the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I try
Oh my God, do I try
I try all the time
In this institution

And I pray
Oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day
For revolution

And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I, I am feeling
A little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath
And I get real high
And I scream
From the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey
(Wake in the morning
And step outside)
Hey-ey-ey
(Take a deep breath
And I get real high)
(And I scream)
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
(Wake in the morning
And step outside)
Hey-ey, yeah yeah yeah
(Take a deep breath
And I get real high)
(And I scream)
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
