Lyrics

People, they just don't seem to understand Why is this person but he's just a man He's seen it high, he's seen it low He's traveled miles, he don't know Imagination takes him far away Dreamin' up things he might write down someday And these people, they turn around and say At least I'm not alone, somebody else speakin' He got the world, he got the power He got the wisdom, he'll never cower He gonna tell you to tear down the tower He'll make you pay in the witching hour He gets so confused When he knows he's bein' used He's so easily abused And it hurts him so When Mr. Dreamer comes up with a new light To cast on something hidden deep in the night Heluva nation can be painfully bright Some people love him for it, somebody says he ain't got no right He got the world, he got the power He got the reach, he'll never cower He gonna tell you to tear down the tower He'll make you pay in the witching hour He gets so confused When he knows he's bein' used He's so easily abused And it hurts him so People asleep are easily alone Come on, wake up, you're missing on the farm There's so much to do that ain't been done Come on, the music's playin', the day has been gone You got the world, you got the power You got the wisdom, ain't gonna cower You gonna the ones to tear down the tower 'Cause you've been thinkin' in the witching hour
