Dancing free for eyes to see, 
My back is bent, 
My knees are weak, 
But I don't mind 
Sign of the times… 

We laugh like fools, and that is fine! 
And after all 
We spent our chips on crooked cloth for crooked hips, 
But I don't mind 
Sign of the times… 

You are here, so that is fine! 
And all your tears are fading away, 
All your fears, they are sailing today… 

These candle sticks turn molten wax, 
And so do we slip through the cracks? 
But I don't mind these changing times. 

It's warm in here, so that is fine. 
Look what we learn, each table turned! 
Look in our eyes with want they burn! 
But I don't mind these changing times. 

Our hands are free, so are our minds. 
And all your tears are fading away, 
And all your fears, they are sailing today, sail away… 

Try to laugh, it's too hard maybe, 
Politics can drive you crazy, 
All our idols live inside us, 
Life's so fast it leaves you breathless… 

All your tears are fading away, 
And all your fears, they are sailing today, sail away… 

Try to laugh, it's too hard maybe, 
Politics can drive you crazy, 
All our idols live inside us, 
Life's so fast it leaves you breathless…
