Текст песни Dialogue - Live 1978 - Chicago

Are you optimistic 'bout the way that things are going?
No, I never ever think of it at all
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
Well, I try to mind my business, when there's no business at all
Yeah

When it's time to function as a feeling, human being
Will your Bachelor of Arts help you get by?
Oh, yeah
I hope to study further, a few more years or so
I also hope to keep a steady high
Amen

Will you try to change things?
Use the power that you have, the power of a million new ideas?
Yeah
What is this power you speak of and the need for things to change?
I always thought that everything was fine
Ooh, baby, everything's doin' fine

Don't you feel repression in the city where you live?
All the needless hunger, all the needless pain
I haven't been there lately, the country is so fine
My neighbor don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
Yes, everything's doin' fine

Don't you see starvation in the city where you live?
All the needless hunger, all the needless pain
Said, I haven't been there lately, the country is so fine
My neighbor don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
For the last time

Thank you for the talk, you know, you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes of things to come, yeah
Well, if you had my outlook, your feelings would be numb
You'd always think that everything was fine
Everything was fine
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We can make it happen
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We can change the world now
We can change the world now
We can change the world now

We can save the children
We can save the children
We can save the children
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We can make it better
We can make it better
We can make it better

We can make it better
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We can change the world now
We can change the world now
We can change the world now

We may not be friends but um
