25 years of my life and still 
I'm trying 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 
to get it all out what's in my head then I 
I am feeling a little peculiar 
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside 
and I take deep breath 
and I get real high 
then I scream from the top of my lungs 
what's goin' on 

and I say hey... hey... 
I say hey, what's goin' on 
and I say hey... hey... 
I said hey, what's goin' on 

Oh, oooh... 
Oh, oooh... 

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 my bed 
just to get it all out what's in my head then I 
I am feeling a little peculiar 
and so I wake in the morning and I step outside 
and I take a deep breath then I get real high 
then I scream from the top of my lungs 
what's goin' on 

and I say hey... hey... 
I say hey, what's goin' on 
and I say hey... hey... 
I said hey, what's goin' on 

and I say hey... hey... 
I say hey, what's goin' on 
and I say hey... hey... 
I said hey, what's goin' on 

Oh, oooh, oooh...
