and you might ask yourself
just what do i feel if i don’t have any feelings? yeah
into the blue again
water flowing underground
letting the days go by
water flowing underground
you might ask yourself
how do i get to the bottom of the ocean?
you might ask yourself
just who lives on the dark side of the moon?
you might ask yourself

behind every smile, another smile
don’t be afraid of the dark
just some friendly advice
we feel it, we feel it, we feel it comin’ from underneath our feet

the revolution for world peace, world consciousness, has just begun
