Not the kind to make you run for the border
  It's a new religion wrapped in a revolution
  With a proven solution for your mental pollution

  Don't let no one tell you that god ain't got a sense of humor
  Someone said he's pissed off, but that was just a rumor
  I know he's laughin' when the preacher starts to scream about
  How trippin' is evil, and sex is unclean

  Cars and gold bars and chains and diamond rings
  These are the symbols, we want the real things
  Peace in the soul and a natural insight
  Things that please the mind and make the body feel right

  Nature wants your life to go on long and on strong
  To have children and show them where you went wrong
  So if your life style leads you into hell or into prison
  Wake up and listen, this is what you're missing

  Free will, we can't seem to get our fill
  We are beggers, we are choosers drunk on a lack of power
  I believe in understanding, I've got to know where we're landing
  I'm takin' my survey now, hands up if you're with me
  Do you want different choices? Can't hear the quiet voices
  Got to dim all the lights, turn down the volume
  Put on a little more forgiveness, who's gonna be my witness?
  If we must endure this trial, someone is bound to touch us

  Do you want more sex, more comforting
  A little more foreplay and afterglow, let my people go
  Everybody wants peace on the earth, children sheltering
  Calling every man, every woman
  We're gonna take control of our own bodies

  Peace breaks out in the battle of the sexes
  We start to learn what the other one expects is
  We stay away from what the other one rejects is
  And have respect for individual perspectives

  We're gonna break out of this cycle of dependency
  And liberate each other from a hopeless life of drudgery
  And face up to the truth as we dispel all of this secrecy
  And simplify the situation when we learn to speak plainly

  We're gonna take control of the machinery
  Bad little actors that chew up the scenery
  Job number one is gonna be findin' a way
  That we can rave all night and meditate all day

  Mankind's strugglin' hard to see the light
  To hear the voice of the spirit in the night
  To lay down his heavy burden and pick up his soul power
  And build a heaven on earth hour by hour by hour

  Child protection, more careful mate selection
  Everyone wants to be wanted by a natural father and mother
  Lookin' for a sense of wonder, don't let your faith go under
  This is a beautiful world, if we could only give up fighting
  The answer is surrender, every race, every gender
  Beat our swords into plowshares on the anvil of a pure heart
  We gotta have honest answers and the courage to take our chances
  Opporunity's knockin' loud, give me your attention
