[Verse 1]
Dull as dirt
You can't assert the kind of light
That might persuade
A strict dictator to retire
Fire the army
Teach the poor origami
The truth is in
The proof is when
You hear your heart start askin'
"What's my motivation?" (—ation)
And try as you may, there isn't a way
To explain the kind of change
That would make an Eskimo renounce fur
That would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster
Unless you can trace this about-face
To a certain sign (Sign)
[Chorus]
Shine
Make 'em wonder what you've got
Make 'em wish that they were not
On the outside lookin' bored
Shine
Let it shine before all men
Let 'em see good works and then
Let 'em glorify the Lord
