Lyrics

Well, who do you think you're foolin'?
You say you're havin' fun
But you're busy going nowhere
Just lying in the sun
You tried to be a hero
Commit the perfect crime
But the dollar got you dancing
And you're running out of time

You're messin' up the water
You're rolling in the wine
You're poisoning your body
You're poisoning your mind
You gave me coca-cola
You said it tasted good
You watch the television
It tell you that you should

How can you live in this way?

You must have something to say

There must be more to this life
It's time we did something right
Child of vision, won't you listen?
Find yourself a new ambition

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
