Don't You Know

Angel, I remember you running for the door

You said, "You better wait, my friend, I could be back for more"

So you walked a while dressed in style down some avenue

What is it that always makes you do the things you do?

People tell you where to go and what to do all day

They'll push you down right to the ground, you better not complain

Well, who's to say you have to play with everyone you meet?

It's all the same, it's just a game so why do we compete?

Don't you know you and I are equal?

Don't you know, yeah, we're the beautiful people?

So let's turn our minds to love

It's all we need

Oh, Mississippi's on the beach, she's pleading for her eyes

She'll give you anything you ask and never compromise

She'll shake your mind and shake your body, shake a lot of things

Then light another candle and wash away your sins

What's possible for Mary is impossible for me

But if we join together, there's a possibility

Well, stranger things have happened, so let history be told

What lies within a flower, yeah, beauty will unfold

Don't you know you and I are equal?

Don't you know, yeah, we're the beautiful people?

So let's turn our minds to love

It's all we need, oh

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

We are the beautiful people

Losing track of time, my friend, well, that's all right with me

'Cause time is an abstraction, has no reality

Just too much information only leaves you insecure

When all that really matters is what you should ignore

You can spend your life believing in things you cannot see

Just waste your time pretending you're someone you'll never be

Well, take a look around you, can't you see you've had enough?

Well, I don't know who told us not to put our trust in love

Don't you know you and I are equal?

Don't you know, yeah, we're the beautiful people?

So let's turn our minds to love

It's all we need

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

We are the beautiful people

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

We are the beautiful people

Oh, don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

We are the beautiful people
