I've been waiting for so long To come here now and sing this song Don't be fooled by what you see Don't be fooled by what you hear This is a song to all of my friends They take the challenge to their heart Challenging preconceived ideas Saying goodbye to long standing fears Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains I don't want to be hip and cool I don't want to play by the rules Not under the thumb of the cynical few Or laden down by the doom crew Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains
