There is this thing that's like touching
except you don't touch
Back in the day it just went
without saying at all
All the world's history
gradually dying of shock
There is thing that's like talking
except you don't talk
You sing
You sing

Sing for the bartender, sing for the janitor, sing
Sing for the camera's, sing for the animals, sing
Sing for the children shooting the children, sing
Sing for the teachers who told you that you couldn't sing
Just sing

There is thing keeping everyone's lungs and lips locked
It is called fear and it's seeing a great renaissance
After the show you can not sing wherever you want
But for now lets all pretend
that we're gonna get bombed
So sing

Sing cause it's obvious, sing for the astronauts, sing
Sing for the president, sing for the terrorists, sing
Sing for the soccer team sing, for the Janjaweed, sing
Sing for the kid with the phone who refuses to sing
Just sing

Life is no cabaret
We don't care what you say
We're inviting you anyway
You motherf***** you'll sing someday...
