We might love someone who's an enemy,
We might break the laws of entropy,
And we might learn respect,
You might even listen to me...

In the strange days of our lives

We might breathe clean air, swim a cobalt sea,
We might stop a war, act with gallantry,
And we might read a book,
Improve our memory...

In the strange days of our lives

And when we took the torch into the night we vowed to search the highways for an honest man, but when we looked into each other's eyes we knew it would be best to make some other plan.

Well, we might keep the faith, seek truth, speak honestly,
We might even pull the plugs on our TVs,
We might help the poor and learn geography...

In the strange days of our lives,
In the strange days of our lives.
