[Verse 1: Jonny 5]
Been a long time
You were born, one day you are gonna die, oh
When ya clocked in
Can't remember what you've forgotten, so
Let me tell you how it is here
To exist here, livin' on this sphere, hey
There is some is something called emotion
And sensation and they feel this way
You can build and play, you can lie and scheme
While your children say pretty much anything
Others will arise, colors will become cold
And they call this time and it makes you old
It accelerates slowly, then faster, then before you know
There is some one to look after
Share laughter, and of course you grow
Be aware you can hurt them
They can hurt you, it can make you scream
And understand you're a person
Give birth to new ways to dream

[Chorus: Jonny 5 and Mackenzie Gault]
And it's not just you, we are all about
And we feel it too, and we're called a crowd
And we have the tools so we sing aloud
And we stand up and we all fall down
[Hook]
Ahh la da da la da da ba da
Ahh la da da la da da le la da da da da
Ahh la da da la da da - la ba da da da
Ahh la da da la da da ba da

[Verse 2: Brer Rabbit]
The road is done, we had our fun
And so it ends much like it begun
With a gun shot, brightness
Noise, I'm frighted, I'm fightin'
Then the silence hits
I collect recollections and let go reflections
Of moments of loyalties and defection
Then measure my essence, a servant or despot
Storm over tempest, word or a sentence
Was I heard or never mentioned
And did I hurt whenever men shunned me?
Or another in an instance, rulin' by inches
A student of illness to see where the real went
I grow the strength to deal with the feeling of new skin
Just as the noose was loosened
I let go and saw the two ends, felt the weight lift
From these heavy feet and realized I could have been anything

[Chorus]
The road is done, we had our fun
And so it ends much like it begun
The road is done, we had our fun
And so it ends much like it begun
And its not just you, we are all about
And we feel it too, and we're called a crowd
And we have the tools so we sing aloud
And we stand up and we all fall down
[Hook]
Fall-ah da da la da da ba da
Ahh la da da la da da le la da da da da
Ahh la da da la da da - ba da da da
Ahh la da da la da da - ba da
Ahh la da da la da da la da
Ahh la da da la da da la la la la
Ahh la da da la da da - ba da da da
Ahh la da da la da da ba da
