Take a look who's coming into town
It's a little red man with a little red crown
Up ahead is a growing crowd
Passions marching out, shouting mighty loud
Keep me away from you
Look but don't touch whatever you do
I can hear us screaming out for help
Take a look what you done, take a look at yourself
If you tell us we are under control
Can we sit our ground when life takes its toll?
Let's build a wall, build it fast
Grow it tall, see how long it lasts
You better stay in place, the boss is on the case
Keep Mother Earth safe at her bay, right where you lay
That's what they say
On the day they closed the world
With fire forming down below
How long can we watch the show
Till we open up the doors
And say goodbye to the earthly world we've grown to know
Save me, I'm running out of breath
Don't breathe too deep, you'll catch your death
Take a walk, feed the sunny sunshine
And wave away the twyly light
Listen to those in the know
Watch for whatever they show
They wouldn't lie just to keep us safe
All according to plan, pieces fall in place
Jigsaw getting hard to trace
New colors, new names, see it in the face
Prisoners rising to a boil
Bury them deep in our soil
So you better stay in place,
How can we save the world
By doing nothing all day, this crazy way, that's what you say
On the day they closed the world
With fire forming down below
How long can we watch the show
Till we open up the doors
The people say it's time to go
Time to move in a single row
And say goodbye to the earthly world we've grown to know
What a wonderful world
Saved by paper and plastic, too fantastic
Living the dream, arms inside at all times
Find the face behind the face
No rest for the wretched
No place to stay, cause the only way
Is to stay away
Can you hunger for a touch? I feel that
I feel an itch, to speak out, to reach out
I feel it
I need to see you, see me, see the world
See my place, my place, I feel it
I want it, I want to break out of here,
My life, break out from my life
There's a future waiting for me, can you believe it? I feel it
People falling down one by one
Caught under a spell of a rising sun
Feeling like life's only begun
There's no need to wait, better duck and run
Our eyes tell a different tale
Stories of gloom for the frail
Up ahead is a growing sound
People up in arms, but don't scream too loud
Fighting for what they think is right
Fighting back against an almighty might
Listen to the magical box
Tell you what your future should hold
In its funny waves, you aimlessly sway
Different story, different day, don't dare resist the things they say
On the day they closed the world
With fire forming down below
How long can we watch the show
Till we open up the doors
Hear them cry, the people say it's time to go
Time to move on with the show
The needy holding out for hope
Scared to break the silence long foretold
Say goodbye to the earthly world we've grown to know
What a wonderful world
Taken down by a little red crown
Send a little love my way, the world's too big anyway
Listen, it's oh so quiet, and it's all so nice
