When you're with me climate change doesn't seem so bad When you're with me the slaughter of baby seals isn't my concern 'Cos I'd rather go to hell with you than sit in heaven alone When I'm with you endangered species aren't on my mind When I'm with you starving third world children just don't come up 'Cos I'd rather go to hell with you than sit in heaven alone When we're together the rest of the world can just fade away

In View 02:23
I caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye Nothing I could ever recognize Still I can’t seem to force it from my mind I don’t know why Just a moment and then I turned away Just a moment lasting all day Just a moment that follows me around I can’t see how chorus: I want you in the subway I want you in the street I want you on the boardwalk in your bare feet I want you in the open I want you in view I want to see you And now it follows me everywhere I go But never close enough to get a hold Vanishing into thin air I don’t know where Will that moment ever come again? Would it feel like it did then? Would I recognize it anyway? I can’t say bridge: What can I do But fall in love with every girl that Looks like you

As I walk down the street the flowers grow And the people put on their shades Or retreat indoors instead And wait until the afternoon heat fades The lizards all crawl onto rocks and everyone turns their heads While I move through the day like a great big sunshine * And where are the children? They’ve all run off to play god And they’ll all sleep soundly through the night knowing I’ll be back again like a great big sunshine * As I walk down the street the flowers wilt And the people don their swimwear They lay about in the afternoon haze And drink lemonade on their lawn-chairs The lizards all climb under rocks and everyone adjusts their gaze While I cross the horizon like a great big sunshine

Tell me people What do you think it’s all about? Tell me people What do you think it’s all about? When the full moon rules the sky And the sun refuse to come out Tell me baby What do you think is going wrong? Tell me baby What do you think is going wrong? When sleeping dogs lie And the wolves howl all night long Tell me baby Do you feel it in your bones? Tell me baby Do you feel it in your bones? When the night falls And you’re a long long way from home Tell me people What are all your prayers for? Tell me people What are all your prayers for? When there’s scratching outside your window And a shadow on your door

I got a reason to be home You got a reason to be gone We don't knead a reason because: He's gonna, she's gonna shake the iguana They's gonna, we's gonna shake the iguana You's gonna, I's gonna shake the iguana Everybody's gonna: shake the iguana He don't need a reason to be free She don't need a reason to be she They got a reason because: He's gonna, she's gonna shake the iguana They's gonna, we's gonna shake the iguana You's gonna, I's gonna shake the iguana Everybody's gonna: shake the iguana

Stealing when I should be healing While the pets are hiding in the ceiling Feeling that it's not so appealing Without you Thieving when I should be leaving While the guests commence their customary grieving Believing that it's all deceiving About you Scheming when I could be dreaming While the help are frantically screaming Seeming as if it's all been leaning Toward you And then we all walk out the door

When I open my eyes to start my day I get right up and run away And don't come back until the day is done When I close my eyes to go to sleep I get no rest and just count sheep And think of all the things that have gone wrong And I pray for change For a taste of sweet I'll eat the sour For a moment I'll waste an hour And for a kind word I'll tell another lie To keep a piece I'll risk the whole For a bit of earth I'd sell my soul For a better life I'd gladly die And I pray for change And I pray for change I pray for change most everyday Pray for things to go away Pray fervently for other things to stay No matter what the people say I continue to pray And I pray I pray for change When all the sunlight turns to rain And all the world is wrapped in pain I'll pray I'll pray for change
