When I wake up
And the day begins
Do I hold my breath
And count to ten
Or will it be three
We'll see
We'll see
It depends on which day of the week
So I sing out
I sing out loud
I'm just one tiny motherfucker singing proud
Singing glory
Glory
Hallelujah
Yeah, that'll do
Yeah, that'll do
In the arms
Of a city
That holds no trace
For this friendly face of you and me
Go make your life
Not a living
Singing glory
Glory
Hallelujah
Yeah, that'll do
There's things to know
And so we're told
But the days
Keep rolling on so painfully slow
They say there's ways to grow
But blow by blow
You see, it all gets lost somewhere
See, I already forgot
So sing out loud
Sing out loud
You can be another motherfucker singing proud
Singing glory
Glory
Remind me, glory, glory, glory, hallelu . .
We should all keep pretending
That our dreams are patent pending
You should see
Some of the scenes that I've seen
And I know love
Because I've flown above
And beyond
But it's still too long of a wait
So I sing out
I sing out loud
We can be 10,000 motherfuckers singing proud
Sing out glory, glory, glory, glory, hallelu . .
Yeah, that'll do
Yeah, that'll do
I'll sing my stories for you
And you will sing for me, too
And together
We can make it through
They say
When you sing you're praying twice
Don't that sound nice
So, rise up
Come on, and give it a try
So sing out
Sing out loud
We can be 6 billion motherfuckers singing proud
Oh, sing it loud
Sing glory
Glory, glory, glory
Hallelu . . . hallelu . . . hallelu . .
Hal . . . hal . . . hallelu . . . hallelu . . . jah . .
Hallelujah
Hallelu . .
Oh, say hallelu . .
