Well, who do you think you're foolin'? You say you're having fun But you're busy going nowhere Just lying in the sun
You tried to be a hero Commit the perfect crime But the dollar got you dancing And you're running out of time
You're messin' up the water You're rolling in the wine You're poisoning your body You're poisoning your mind
You gave me Coca-Cola 'Cause you said it tasted good And you watch your television 'Cause it tells you that you should
How can you live in this way? (Why do you think it's so strange?) You must have something to say (Tell me why should I change?) There must be more to this life It's time we did something right
I said, child of vision, won't you listen? Find yourself a new ambition
I've heard it all before You're saying nothing new I thought I saw a rainbow But I guess it wasn't true
You cannot make me listen And I cannot make you hear So you find your way to heaven And I'll meet you when you're there
How can you live in this way? (Why do you think it's so strange?) You must have something to say (Tell me why should I change?) We have no reason to fight 'Cause we both know that we're right
Child of vision, won't you listen? Find yourself a new ambition
