We do what we wanna do, say what we wanna say
Live how how we wanna live, play how we wanna play
Don't wanna do harm to nobody, probably you're the same in that you wanna be
Open to give and hoping to live to the courage of your convictions
With all the intelligence nature gave you this is my religion
School assembly Christian but it never did rub me well
That there would be those, that wanna suppose, committing a sin, we'll be going to hell
It's scary, but they never did snare me praying to Mary or anyone else
When half of the game is having a brain to work it out for ourselves
I tell thee
Every saviour that they gave you that they said was true
Only ends up trying tell you what to do
From the second we were born we knew
It all comes back around to you
Every time you make a smile on someone else's face
Every times you give the world's a better place
Pay it forward it'll follow through
It all comes back around to you
Somewhere far aware from here
Things may all be clear
But for now we're floating in the stratosphere
So in the lieu for proof
Of some celestial truth
And let's concentrate on what we've got beneath this roof
I don't wanna make it seem like I know everything
Maybe the point is I'm not sure of anything
But then maybe the richness of life is the cloth
Of the tapestry never unravelling
Going out on a limb just
Taking it in that we live and we breathe in this galaxy
The pope is to blame for children with AIDs whatever they're given to charity
If there's something of worth for you in a church then I'll say no more
But from Allah, to God to Jehovah there's prejudice
Hatred and judgement and war, so fuck that
I reckon it's true that you're lucky as long as you got your health
And you're blessed my son if you treat everyone like you'd want to be treated yourself
And that's that
Every saviour that they gave you that they said was true
Only ends up trying tell you what to do
From the second we were born we knew
It all comes back around to you
Every time you make a smile on someone else's face
Every times you give the world's a better place
Pay it forward it'll follow through
It all comes back around to you
