Lyrics

We will have to make a journey Through the eyes of idiots Where every problem in the country Is blamed upon the immigrants Not exactly high society Neither tack nor sobriety The people who never doubt Are the ones I'm worried about The people who never doubt Are the ones who carry the clout Not exactly high society Neither tack nor sobriety Way they behave, how they lie Whereas I look for balance to strike Let's seize the day Don't generate antipathy Obsessing over history I try to lean but something keeps on stopping me I think may be dignity Stay home with me You are the reason I am here Stay home with me You are the reason I am here Now is the time For opening your mind Now is the time For opening your mind Let's seize the day Don't generate antipathy Obsessing over history I try to lean but something keeps on stopping me I think may be dignity Stay home with me You are the reason I am here Don't deny your pride There's nothing wrong with difference If better than maleficence Stay home with me You are the reason I am here Stay home with me You are the reason I am here
