Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realised quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
[Verse 2]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I'm feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?
[Verse 3]
And I say
Hey yeah yeah hey hey
Hey yeah yeah
I say hey
What's going on?
[Verse 4]
And I say
Hey yeah yeah hey hey
Hey yeah yeah
I say hey
What's going on?
[Verse 5]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Verse 6]
And I try
Oh my God, do I try
I try all the time
In this institution
And I pray
And oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day
For revolution
[Verse 7]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I'm feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?
[Verse 8]
And I say
Hey yeah yeah hey hey
Hey yeah yeah
I say hey
What's going on?
[Verse 9]
And I say
Hey yeah yeah hey hey
Hey yeah yeah
I say hey
What's going on?
[Verse 10]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Verse 11]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
