Lyrics
If you dream of utopia how can it be so wrong?
If everyone feels so similar why does it take so long
to make a world where we're happier and everyone is free,
and the atmosphere is healthier, and soil too, and sea?
If I told you my opinion you'd laugh and say 'grow up',
but why is there such opposition when the status quo is fucked?
Can't we just break with tradition? Society unstuck.
It takes the grit to make the pearl appear, that's what they say, I know.
A perfect world is an imperfect world but why must this be so?
Compassion overtaken every day by fear and greed and hate.
And all the millions who don't have a choice, is it for them too late?
If I told you my opinion you'd laugh and say 'grow up',
but why is there such opposition when the status quo is fucked?
Can't we just break with tradition?
Build a society unstuck?
