I can't buy the lie and it don't matterEven though I try to keep my healthIt all seems the same, such a silly gamePlayed by silly fools who don't even follow their own rulesBut oh, when the sunshine follows me aroundLifts my feet and takes me from the groundHigh enough to see the shelfAnd know that I was educated by myselfI have seen the streets groaning, not batteredThough amongst us all, we kept our wealthAnd though the rain goes pitter-patterIt don't change the pain that we all feltBut oh, when the sunshine follows us aroundLifts our feet and takes us from the ground,High enough for us to tellThat we were educated by ourselvesIt's a simple dream, a common patternA universal scheme for us to sellAnd though it's a long, long way between Mars and SaturnBut right here on Earth, we know so wellThat all we need is sunshine on the groundAnd smiles and smiles and smiles from frown to frownJust enough for us to yellThat we were educated by ourselves Aus Songtexte Mania
