Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who's got the brain of JFK? What's it mean to us now?
Oh, it's sound insurance, but I can tell you this is no lie
[Chorus]
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
[Verse 2]
You, you've been taught, whipped into shape, now they got you in line
Stand behind the stripes, there will be order, so give it a good mind
[Chorus]
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
[Bridge]
And by name
The name they gave me
The name I'm letting go
[Chorus]
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
[Outro]
The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The whole world will be different soon
