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
That I'll sing out,
I sing out loud.
I'm just one mother****er singing proud.
Singing glory,
Glory,
Hallelujah.
Yeah, that'll do.
And that'll do.
In the arms of a city
that holds no space
For the friendly faces of you and me.
Go make your life,
not a living.
Singing glory, glory, glory...
Hallelu...
Yeah, hallelujah.
There's things to know,
So I'm told.
But the days they keep rolling on so painfully playing slow.
And no room to grow,
But blow by blow,
Ya see, I always get lost somewhere.
See, I already forgot
To sing out,
I'm gonna sing out loud.
You should be another mother****er singing proud.
Sing out glory,
Remind me of the glory, hallelu...
Ha, hallelu...
And that'll do.
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,
'Cause I've flown above it and beyond it,
but it's still too long of a wait.
That's why I sing out,
Sing out loud,
We should be 10,000 mother****ers singing out.
Oh sing out glory,
Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory,
Hallelu, hallelu, ha, ha, hallelu...
lu...
I'll sing my stories for you,
And you will sing for me, too.
And together, we will make it through.
They say, "When you sing you're prayin' twice."
Well don't that sound nice?
So, rise up, come on,
And give it a try.
To sing out,
Just sing out loud,
We could be 6 billion mother****ers singing proud.
Why not sing glory?
Glory, glory
Hallelu... Hallelu... Hallelu...jah
This is no ordinary world.
We need extraordinary glory.
Hallelu...
And yeah, that'll do.
And yeah, that'll do.
Sing oh...
Sing halle...lu...
