Read All About It

You've got the words to change a nation

But your body, oh, it's dumb

You've spent a lifetime stuck in silence

Afraid you'll say somethin' wrong

If no one ever hears us

How we gonna love our song?

So come on, come on

Come on, come on

You've got a heart as loud as lions

So why let your voice be tame?

Maybe we're a little different

There's no need to be ashamed

You've got a light to fight our shadows

So stop hiding it away

Come on, come on

I wanna sing, I wanna shout

I wanna scream 'til the words dry out

So put it in all of the papers, I'm not afraid

They can read all about it, read all about it

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

And I could walk in and the neighbors

Would just sing away my blues

Makin' sure that they're remembered

Yeah, 'cause we done made our move

If the truth's forbidden

Then we're breakin' all the rules

So come on, come on

Come on, come on

Let's get the TV and the radio

To play our tune again

It's 'bout time we got some airplay

Of our version of events

There's no need to be afraid

It'll be the same with you, my friend

So come on, come on

I wanna sing, I wanna shout

I wanna scream 'til the words dry out

So put it in all of the papers, I'm not afraid

They can read all about it, read all about it

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Yeah, we're a wonderful, wonderful people

So when did we all get so fearful?

Now we're finally findin' our voices

So take a chance, come help me sing this

Yeah, we're a wonderful, wonderful people

So when did we all get so fearful?

And now we're finally findin' our voices

So take a chance, come help me sing this

I wanna sing, I wanna shout

I wanna scream 'til the words dry out

So put it in all of the papers, I'm not afraid

They can read all about it, read all about it

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I wanna sing, I wanna shout

I wanna scream 'til the words dry out

So put it in all of the papers, I'm not afraid

They can read all about it, read all about it, oh
