They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a pastime paradise
|
They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a pastime paradise
|
They've been wasting most their time
|
Glorifying days long gone behind
|
They've been wasting most their days
|
In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise
|
|
Tell me who of them will come to be
|
How many of them are you and me
|
Dissipation

Consolation
|
Segregation
|
Dispensation
|
Isolation
|
Exploitation
|

|

|
Confirmation...to the evils of the world
|
|
They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a future paradise
|
They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a future paradise
|
They've been looking in their minds
|
For the day that sorrows gone from time
|
They keep telling of the day
|
When the savior of love will come to stay
|
|
Tell me who of them will come to be
|
How many of them are you and me
|

|
Living in a pastime paradise
|
They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a future paradise
|
They've been spending most their lives
|
Living in a future paradise
|
We've been spending too much of our lives
|
Living in a pastime paradise
|
|
Lets start living our lives
|
Living for the future paradise
|
Praise to our lives
|
Living for the future paradise
|
Shame to anyone's lives
|
Living in the pastime paradise
