[Verse 1]
There were people on the sidewalks (Sidewalks)
Strolling down the avenues (Avenues)
People sitting outside in cafes (Cafes)
We were looking for the muse (For the muse)
Well I was locked in by the system (Ooh)
Where no freedom is the rule
Now I spend all my time (All my time)
Trying to make it understood (Understood)

[Verse 2]
It once was my life (Was my lifе)
That's what everybody said (Everybody said)
Things I usеd to do (Used to do)
And the people that were friends (That were friends)
I've got to make it mean something (Ooh)
At the end of the day
It once was my life (Was my life)
I can't take that away (That away)

[Bridge]
Trials and tribulations (Trials and tribulations)
And stupidity still rules (It still rules, it still rules)
Some days it seems like (Some days you know it seems like)
I'm on a ship of fools
