People on the sidewalk

Making small talk

Keeping up with life

Ask no questions

Make no decisions

Just do what's right



Oh, do you wanna runaway

Oh, do you wanna breakaway



Someone's screamin'

Calling out for help

But everyone looks after themselves

No one cares or gives a damn

How can we live in this land



Are you looking out for you

One hand can change

This world, it's true

Some will stay and some must go

But do they really know



Oh, which way will the wind blow

Which way will the seas flow

Which way with time

Oh, which way will the world turn

Who's hand will control it in our time



With our hands on eyes

Fingers in our ears

We've been like this

For too many years

Let others do what they do

Without asking if it's good for you



Turn it round, upside down

Plug it in, turn up the sound

Let's hear what's in your head

Before it's too late to be said
