This ain’t no time to be singin’
With things the way they are.
This ain’t no time to be dancin’,
How can dancin’ get you very far.
Let’s not be unrealistic
About what a song can do.
If you get too idealistic,
Someone’s gonna criticize you.

My song may not change the world,
My dance may not improve it,
But I’m not gonna stand around
When I’ve got a chance, got a chance,
Got a chance to move it.

There’s classical, jazz and there’s country,
Reggae, rhythm and rock.
Don’t know where the music got started,
I just hope it never stops.

My song may not change the world…etc.
