we're one big family out here in the zone
we have each other and we feel right at home
we have all we need except a mind of our own
in the zone
it doesn't rain here and it never gets cold
mr. sunshine's like the rest of us, he does what he's told
and the one we owe it all to's only seven years old
in the zone
and you can't get over it
and you can't get under it
you can't walk around it
you can't even get close to it
in the zone
it's awfully quiet here, you can't here a sound
no birds fly over, there's no birds to be found
I guess it's better than a hole in the ground
in the zone
and there's no trouble here and there's no war
nobody's hungry here and nobody's poor
inside the fishbowl all our troubles are gone
behind the barrier, life goes on
in the zone
and you can't get over it
and you can't get under it
you can't walk around it
you can't even get close to it
in the zone
the true believers were the first to be saved
they were the first to take their place in the caves
we don't get older here no we never age
in the zone
