[Verse 1]
Detour
Detour
Detour (Ooh, we got to make a detour), detour
[Verse 2]
The people try to crash land down
Shoot at the sky, a craze with rage
We're all good people if you go deep down
But we gotta be keeping with the brand new age
[Verse 3]
Time for a detour
We oughta take the curve
Taking the detour
Ooh, it's time for a swerve
[Verse 4]
The world's in a spin now
It's time for a change
We know we can win now
We'll share the weight
We cause no pain, we can't explain
We lost the force, we went off course
[Verse 5]
Ooh, we need a detour (Detour)
(Detour)
With a curve and a swerve (Detour)
Mmm, detour (Detour)
Forget that flaw from back in days
And the power we sought as we took to the stage
Made it fifteen years till we found our ways
Our election fears as we turn the page
[Verse 6]
Gotta take a detour
The road is blocked
Time for a detour
Ooh, the gate's are locked
[Verse 7]
We're finally tracking in the path of the groove
We're willingly backing the path of the moon
There'll be no pain, we can't explain
We found the force, we're back on course
[Verse 8]
We need a detour (Detour)
Gonna have to make a detour (Detour)
Oh, with a curve and a swerve (Detour)
(Detour)
[Verse 9]
I used to say 'I love you' but I was straight insane
I always left you holding the weight of my pain
'Cause I can't stay
For even one more day
I broke two hearts
I couldn't share the plots, then I ran away
[Verse 10]
People try to crash land down
Shoot at the sky, a craze with rage
We're all good people if you go deep down
But we gotta be keeping with the brand new age
[Verse 11]
Time for a detour
We gotta take the curve (Detour now)
Making the detour
It's time for a swerve (Detour now)
[Verse 12]
The world's in a spinnin'
It's time for a change
We know we ain't winning
We share the weight
We cause no pain, we can't explain
We lost the force, we went off course
[Verse 13]
Ooh, we need a detour (Detour)
Oh, I got to have a detour (Detour)
Oh, with a curve and a swerve (Detour)
Ooh, we need a detour (Detour)
[Verse 14]
(Detour) Take a curve and a swerve
(Detour)
(Detour)
We need a detour (Detour)
