Back on the road
 New pair of shoes
 Almost took a wrong turn thinking 'bout you
 Ishook my head left
 I shook my head right
 Had about enough of thinking 'bout you tonight

 I need some new illusion
 Give me a picture of a brighter day
 It's all I need to see a new solution
 Just a break to take me away

 I wanna feel rich when I'm broke
 Feel young when I'm old
 I may never hit gold
 But you know I get the feeling 
 Up when I'm down
 Even strong with no power
 See the sunshine at night
 'Cause you know I get the feeling night

 Back in the street
 Where I should be
 The good times and the bad times are waiting there for me
 I try to make a move
 But nothing seems to give
 I can't climb the wall to where the other half live

 I need some new illusion
 Give me a picture of a brighter day
 It's all I need to see a new solution
 Just a break to take me away

 I wanna feel rich when I'm broke
 Feel young when I'm old
 I may never hit gold
 But you know I get the feeling 
 Up when I'm down
 Even strong with no power
 See the sunshine at night
 'Cause you know I get the feeling right

 thousand years ago
 Or two years from now
 I'll guarantee that someone's gonna try to get you down
 Everything you've got
 Is all they wanna take
 But you can sing a song, They can never steal away

 I need some new illusion
 Give me a picture of a brighter day
 It's all I need to see a new solution
 Just a break to take me away

 I wanna feel rich when I'm broke
 Feel young when I'm old
 I may never hit gold
 But you know I get the feeling 
 Up when I'm down
 Even strong with no power
 See the sunshine at night
 'Cause you know I get the feeling
 Rich when I'm broke
 Young when I'm old
 I may never hit gold
 But you know I get the feeling right
