Under the Paving Stones
Somewhere was a different kind of time
When children weren't too bored to
Lose their lives
For change and loss
And star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?
'cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to regain that kind of fire
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
You talk to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
I had always thought it was a crime
To still own slaves within such modern times
But who am I to question such a life?
When I still own my own place in the line
And what could make a person wish to fight
When dazzling lights have overwhelmed his sight
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
Somewhere there's a different kind of time, -ime
When children weren't too bored to
Lose their lives
For change and loss
And star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?
'cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to reclaim that kind of fire
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only (ornament) left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
Ooh ooh
Ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh...
When children weren't too bored to
Lose their lives
For change and loss
And star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?
'cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to regain that kind of fire
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
