Hey there everybody, out there gettin down
  Steppin with the fashions, throwin love around
  You're hustlin for money, you playin' the big man's game
  Going around in circles, you don't know where
  Ah, you're smilin' through the pain
  
  Oh, such a strange affair
  Don't it blow your mind, mon cher
  I ain't lyin', anything goes
  you got to keep on tryin'
  Everybody knows we got to turn it around
  
  Cost of livin' risin'
  Unemployment grows (I ain't got no job)
  Wastin' our resources
  Who's makes all the dough? (Everybody but the po')
  Politicians Preachin
  While color watchers are freakin'
  Children needin' Teachin'
  While for the stars we're reachin'
  
  Oh, such a strange affair
  Don't it blow your mind, mon cher
  I can't stand it, it don't need to be that way
  I don't want it
  Yeah, there's got to be a change
  We got to turn it around
