I punched the clock in at 35,
I thank the
Lord that
I'm still alive, sometimes
I find it hard to believe that my hearts still beating that
I'm still on my feet,
I'm gonna give you, gonna give you a mission statement.
I've been in a downward spiral for a very long, long time,
I've been stepping over dollars just to pick up a shiny dime,
The way I see it, it ain't gonna work,
I'm kissing the past goodbye,
I'm gonna give you, gonna give you a mission statement,
I got no more patience, got no more time,
I'm tired of following orders, sticking to the company line,
I want to change the world and
I'm starting with myself, a private revalation concerning everybody else, we're all just lonely people we're all looking for some help, too busy crunching numbers and fighting for ourselves, all it takes is kindness and a little love and care, and this planet that we live on can be a
Heaven we can share, a mission statement.
The tears of hungry children are falling in the dust, the scraps of a rich man's table could fill their starving mouths, while some they thirst for water others get drunk on wine, to some their lives a prison and they're out there doing time,
I'm gonna give you, give you a mission statement,
I got no more patience,
I got no more time,
I'm tired of following orders, sticking to the company line
I want to change the world and
I'm starting with myself, a private revalation concerning everybody else, we're all just lonely people we're all looking for some help, too busy crunching numbers and fighting for ourselves, all it takes is kindness and a little love and care, and this planet that we live on can be a
Heaven we can share, a mission statement.
