You can hear the people
Talk about their yesterdays
You can hear them shout
In oh so many ways
You can hear them cry
When they think of the years that went by
You can hear them sigh
It seems they die
When they think of today

Everything's fast
Not like in the past
Hairs grow long
Yes everybody's been wrong
People don't seem to understand
The free man's a happy man
People don't seem to want to know
The masquerade is over
It's time to go
WHOA NO!

We live like we want to
We don't care what they say
Yeah we live like we want to
Don't regret a single day
You won't put us down
We've got our feet on the ground
They walk us through places
We only heard about
Things have changed
In so many ways
Don't look back to the old days
