The Moody Blues

 I keep on wand'ring on the face of this earth
 Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
 And while I wander I hear so many words
 Language barriers broken now we've found the key

 And if you want this world of yours to turn about you
 And you're the only other person to know
 Don't tell me
 I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

 How can we understand
 Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
 And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
 Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
 (Scorching) scorching this earth

 I keep on wan'dring on the face of this earth
 Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
 And while I wander I hear so many words
 Language barriers broken now we've found the key

 And if you want the wind of change to blow around you
 And you can see exactly what to do
 Please tell me
 I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

 How can we understand
 Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
 And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
 Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
 (Scorching) scorching this earth

 Music is the traveller crossing our world
 Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
 I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band (2x)
 Music is the traveller crossing our world
 Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
 I'm Just the Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band
 We're just the singers in a rock 'n' roll band
