We've been told lies. We've been herded around
Taken for rides, told that this is the one
We've learned all the steps, and where do they lead?
Right back to zero—or not far, I believe.
Making history as we open our eyes
And no one's quite sure so we... We improvise
And wherever it leads us is wherever we'll go
I'd dance forever if they'd let me, you know.
Wearing our hair up in anger, we cry:
"The revolution's dead, it went out in style!"
The children are learning much faster than we
Soon they'll be older, but then again, so will we.
Time has come for each of us to decide—
To follow blindly, or to step out of line
The party is over, it has been for years
Let's use the water to wash up, not for tears.
Seems such a pity
It seemed we had the same dream
And thinking of things past
You sang first, I sang last
You sang first, I sang last
You sang first, I sang last
