Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There is this thing that's like touching, except you don't touch
Back in the day, it just went without saying at all
All the world's history gradually dying of shock
There is this thing that's like talking, except you don't talk
You sing
You sing
[Verse 2]
Sing for the bartender, singer for the janitor, sing
Sing for the cameras, sing for the animals, sing
Sing for the children shooting the children, sing
Sing for the teachers who told you that you couldn't sing
Just sing
[Verse 3]
There is this thing keeping everyone's lungs and lips locked
It is called fear and it's seeing a great renaissance
After the show, you can not sing wherever you want
But for now, let's just pretend we're gonna get bombed
So sing
[Verse 4]
Sing 'cause it's obvious, sing for the astronauts, sing
Sing for the president, sing for the terrorists, sing
Sing for the soccer team, sing for the Janjaweed, sing
Sing for the kid with the phone who refuses to sing
Just sing
[Verse 5]
(Ah-ah-ah) Life is no cabaret
(Ah-ah-ah) We don't care what you say
(Ah-ah-ah) We're inviting you anyway
(Ah-ah-ah) You motherfuckers, you'll sing someday
(Ah-ah-ah) You motherfuckers, you'll sing someday
(Ah-ah-ah) You motherfuckers, you'll sing someday
(Ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah)
