Under the Paving Stones

Somewhere was a different kind of time

Where children weren't too bored to lose their lives

For change and loss, and star-crossed love and lies

But who today can find that kind of time?

'Cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire

A person to regain that kind of fire

And hey, haven't you heard?

You have the right to make a move

You've everything to gain, and only nothing left to lose

Haven't you heard?

It's up to everyone to prove

A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do

I had always thought it was a crime

To still own slaves within such modern times

But who am I to question such a life

When I still hold my own place in the line?

What could make a person wish to fight

When dazzling lights have overwhelmed his sight?

And hey, haven't you heard?

You have the right to make a move

You've everything to gain, and only nothing left to lose

Haven't you heard?

It's up to everyone to prove

A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do

La, la, la-la, la-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

La, la, la-la, la-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

Somewhere there's a different kind of time

Where children weren't too bored to lose their lives

For change and loss, and star-crossed love and lies

But who today can find that kind of time?

'Cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire

A person to reclaim that kind of fire

And hey, haven't you heard?

You have the right to make a move

You've everything to gain, and only boredom left to lose

Haven't you heard?

It's up to everyone to prove

A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
