I wash my faith in dirty water
'cause it gives my mind
a little order
And I play that game
just like I should do
But my whole world slips away
I live my life I live it slowly
And I take my time
I'm in no hurry yeah or maybe
And when I could
then I would surely
I would dance
with a total stranger
And hold them in my arms
Hey ah there could be
no danger if I open up
'Cause when the cryin' starts
Oh if I chant for happiness
maybe that will
make me feel better
I can't change my ideals
I can't lose my desire
Oh if I chant for happiness
maybe that will
make me feel better
I'll be a newborn friend
for the world ah hey
Would I wash my face
in dirty water
For life I have no order
'Cause I know that freer men
have tried so hard
to make it weigh out
And nothin' melds
As they search for
the root of the problems
they lye in deep down
in their souls
But then they never end
There's a whole bunch
of reasons tryin' to get out
But they can't make
it out underdog
Oh oh I know the reason
I'm not enough
There's nothin' my friend
If I chant for happiness
maybe that will
make me feel better
I can't change my ideals
I can't put out the fire
I'll be a newborn friend
for the world
Oh if I chant for happiness
maybe that will
bring us together
I can't change my ideals
I can't lose my desire
I'm just a newborn friend
for the world
Just a newborn friend
for the world
I'll be a newborn
friend and I'll
sing loud sing loud
sing loud my friend
And I sing louder
Sing loud
sing loud my friends
My friends my friends well I
I sing loud sing loud
sing a little louder my friends
The only one only one
my friend my friend my friend
Na na na na na na na
