Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And 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 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 at the top of my lungs
What's going on?!
And I say, hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
And I say hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
Ooh, ooh, ooh
.... ( instrumental ) ....
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 a 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 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 at the top of my lungs
What's going on?!
And I say, hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
And I say hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
And I say, hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
And I say hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And I say, hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
And I say hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
I said hey, what's going on
Ooh, ooh, ooh
