Lyrics

[Intro]
This is a song for Mayor Daley
[Verse 1]
Though your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to Chicago
Just to sing?
[Verse 2]
In a land that's known as freedom
How can such a thing be fair?
Won't you please come to Chicago
For the help that we can bring?
[Chorus]
We can change the world
Rearrange the world
It's dying
To get better
[Verse 3]
Politicians, sit yourselves down
There's nothing for you here
Won't you please come to Chicago
For a ride?
[Verse 4]
Don't ask Jack to help you
'Cause he'll turn the other ear
Won't you please come to Chicago
Or else join the other side?
[Chorus]
We can change the world
Rearrange the world
It's dying, if you believe in justice
It's dying, and if you believe in freedom
It's dying, let a man live his own life
It's dying, rules and regulations, who needs them?
Oh, throw 'em out the door
[Verse 5]
Somehow people must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to Chicago?
Show your face
[Verse 6]
From the bottom of the ocean
To the mountains on the moon
Won't you please come to Chicago?
No one else can take your place
[Chorus]
We can change the world
Rearrange the world
It's dying, if you believe in justice
It's dying, and if you believe in freedom
It's dying, let a man live his own life
It's dying, rules and regulations, who needs them?
Throw 'em out the door
