[Verse 1]
Somewhere was a different kind of time
Where children weren't too bored to lose their lives
For change and loss, and star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to regain that kind of fire

[Chorus]
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain, and only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do

[Verse 2]
I had always thought it was a crime
To still own slaves within such modern times
But who am I to question such a life
When I still hold my own place in the line?

[Pre-Chorus]
What could make a person wish to fight
When dazzling lights have overwhelmed his sight?
[Chorus]
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain, and only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do

[Post-Chorus]
La, la, la-la, la-la la-la, la-la la-la-la
La, la, la-la, la-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

[Bridge]
Somewhere there's a different kind of time
Where children weren't too bored to lose their lives
For change and loss, and star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to reclaim that kind of fire

[Chorus]
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain, and only boredom left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
