Lyrics Poem for the People - Chicago

Poem for the People

If the people only knew
If they could visualize
Just open their eyes
Even stop to think about
If they could open their minds
They could get beyond
The world’s a funny place, you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny
At all
Could the people understand
In all their whispered screams
And colorless dreams
Could they finally comprehend
If they could suddenly see
And suddenly feel
The world’s a funny place, you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny
At all
