Human Race

I need a hat to hide under
I need some shoes to fill
I need a coat to curl up in
So I can dream again
And a broken watch so that I can just stand still
Cause this whole world is going crazy
I just can’t find my place
I got no scheme to come up with
No time to keep up with this rat race

I just wanna make this world a better place
For everyone, don’t wanna run in the human race
It doesn’t take a lot to get me high
These days seems my troubles just pass me by
Its like I’m walking up on a cloud, always thinking out loud
Its like I’m speaking and a song is coming out
So I bend right down just to tie my shoes
Down on the pavement its so hard
To keep from gettin’ the blues

But I keep on troddin’ on, singing a triumphant song
Giving love cause I got nothing to lose
Days pass by, people come and people fly
In and out the door I’m learning more with each experience
My heart grows and my blood flows
I’m feeling lighter and lighter, like a feather
I’m burning brighter like the Sun
And I think I like what I have become

So I, I’m gonna just sit back relax
And let the river flow take me where its gonna go
And I, I’m gonna be just like a leaf
And let the gentle breeze
Take me wherever it pleases
It takes quite a lot to keep me low
When all around me life surrounds me like a magic show

I can’t imagine being bored when there’s so much left to know
I’ll never stop learning cause there’s always room to grow
So I been walking round these city streets
So much derision and division, everyone playing for keeps
Every time somebody screws up an angry car horn beeps
Round every corner a crooked policeman creeps
But did you know there’s a better place where we can go
A beautiful land full of helping hands
You can make a mistake and no one gives a damn
And no one makes your plans or feeds
You fantasy or tells you what to be
I call this new land reality

Cause I’m not looking for no trouble
I just wanna double my fun
Spend all my days in the Sun
And I know nothing lasts forever
So any kind of weather is fine
And we’ll have a good time

And if the words don’t rhyme it doesn’t matter
Cause no ones keeping score
And on that you can be sure that if the words
We choose never quite fit us right
We’ll make a language we like and
It’ll sound something like
