Dreams Are Better Than Life
- I see, I want
- I will make it mine
- no nine to five
- must work overtime
- I push, I shove
- leave all else behind
- to catch the elusive
- and holy dollar sign
- I look for life within my gain
- to please myself
- I search....... (in vain)
- can't you see
- they're right before your eyes
- the things you want
- you could have if only you tried
- there's no end
- to what money will buy
- a little more
- and I'll be satisfied
- I have a dream
- to live in a world without strife
- so often it seems
- dreams are better than life
- we live our lives
- in a never ending race
- to get ahead
- or at least to keep the pace
- we build more barns
- to store the things we need
- then we die
- and leave without a trace
- I look for life within my gain
- to please myself
- I search....... (in vain)
- a faster car,
- a nicer home
- with a pretty view
- we can call all our own
- family and friends
- a name all over town
- with an emptiness
- that only we have known
- I have a dream
- to live in a world without strife
- so often it seems
- dreams are better than life
- when will we see
- that we have been deceived
- the things we want
- have become the things we need
- in our wealth
- we deify our minds
- but in the end
- both rich and poor will bleed
- I look for life within my gain
- to please myself
- I search....... (in vain)
- we hoard and cling
- attempt to satisfy
- our inner soul
- find rest before we die
- the time has come
- when we must decide
- for whom we live
- and then we will know why
- I have a dream
- to live in a world without strife
- so often it seems
- dreams are better than life
