Cm7
Well, who do you think you're foolin'?
Cm7
You say you're havin' fun,
Gm7
But you're busy going nowhere,
Gm7
Just lying in the sun.
Cm7
You tried to be a hero,
Cm7
commit the perfect crime
Gm7
but the dollar got you dancing
Gm7
and you're running out of time.
Cm7
You're messin' up the water
Cm7
You're rolling in the wine
Gm7
You're poisoning your body
Gm7
You're poisoning your mind
Cm7
You gave me coca-cola
Cm7
You said it tasted good
Gm7
You watch the television
Gm7
It tell you that you should.
Fm7
How can you live in this way?
Gm7
You must have something to say.
G#
There must be more to this life.
A#6
It's time we did something right.
C# A#
Child of Vision, won't you listen?
D# C7
Find yourself a new ambition.
(same goes for the lyrics below)
I've heard it all before
You're saying nothing new
I thought I saw a rainbow
But I guess it wasn't true
You cannot make me listen
I cannot make you hear
You find your way to heaven,
I'll meet you when you're there.
How can you live in this way?
You must have something to say.
We have no reason to fight,
cos we both know that we're right.
Child of Vision, won't you listen?
Find yourself a new ambition.
Piano solo over Cm7 and Gm7 just like the verses.
