Human Race
Quelle: Spotify
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 puppet 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
