(From the album "Circles In the Stream")



Got no social graces

never know my place

one thing i am sure of

you can't judge a man by his race

birth don't come easy

freedom doesn't come cheap

rules and worlds get swept away

while you waste your time in sleep



(refrain) Grow up you

grow up me

grown together

free to be.



There's music in the forest

children laugh in the school yard

on the skid row of the spirit

hear the ranting of the Western Guard

why don't you cool out

can it be so hard

to love yourself without thinking

someone else holds a lower card



(refrain)



Wired to the switchboard

always on the move

things we love to cling to

but there's nothing we can prove

you can only deal with

what's before your face

and the life you're given's no use at all

if you burn it up in hate



(refrain)
