I woke up this mornin', and the world was gray |
| [00:13.14] |
Haven't seen the sun since they hauled me away |
| [00:16.98] |
The boss man says there's no use in tryin' |
| [00:20.96] |
He won't let me color outside of the lines |
| [00:24.77] |
Got these chains on me |
| [00:26.39] |
And, they're draggin' me down |
| [00:28.48] |
Got these chains on me |
| [00:30.79] |
Hear that clankin' sound? |
| [00:32.59] |
Got these chains on me |
| [00:34.65] |
Mister, hear my song |
| [00:36.96] |
Don't say imagination is morally wrong |
| [00:42.75] |
Mm-hmm-hmm |
| [00:44.70] |
Drink of water, boss? |
| [00:49.05] |
As long as I've been here I've got nothin' to show |
| [00:52.99] |
Try to make somethin' but the boss says no |
| [00:57.01] |
Wanna be creative but the man won't hear it |
| [01:01.21] |
That big boss man is tryin' to crush my spirit |
| [01:04.54] |
Got these chains on me |
| [01:06.64] |
They won't let me fly |
| [01:08.49] |
Got these chains on me |
| [01:10.58] |
Won't tell me why |
| [01:12.42] |
Got these chains on me |
| [01:14.61] |
Mister, hear my song |
| [01:16.99] |
Don't say imagination is morally wrong |
| [01:20.67] |
No, they won't let us dance or bang that gong |
| [01:24.89] |
'Cause they say imagination is morally wrong! |
