if you have a look around you
|
can you see a smiling face?
|
all the people that surround you
|
no one's laughing anyplace
|
|
everybody's runnin scared
|
of the things they haven't dared
|
those who try get stoned
|
and those who don't get fat
|
well that ain't where it's at
|
|
it's a brighter world outside you
|
and it's time you realized
|
there ain't nothin gonna hide you
|
ain't no use in your disguise
|
|
your mind is where it builds
|
all the things you really feel
|
gving up the game will knock you flat
|
but that ain't where it's at
|
|
no no
|
baby get straight
|
while you got the time
|
things that you hate
|
they ain't worth a dime
|
|
don't you know that bein happy ain't no crime
|
|
hear the sound of singin'
|
won't you open up your ears
|
all the fire alarms are ringin
|
cause we're burnin up with fears
|
|
if you really wana live
|
it's yourself you must forgive
|
don't depend on someone else
|
to fit your hat
|
cause that ain't where it's at
|
|
no no
|
I said that ain't where it's at
|
and you know
|
and it's the truth
|
that ain't where it's at..
