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
We might keep the faith, seek truth, speak honestly
We might even pull the plugs on our tv's
We might help the poor
And learn geography
In the strange days of our lives
In the strange days of our lives
