Lyrics
Now, if life were a dream, and all was as it seems,
There would be a fiesta for our mental siesta.
There'd be no rich or poor, of greed we would be pure,
Just, "Mi casa es su casa." Worldwide tabula rasa...
Everyone would live well under this naive spell:
A utopia born, a brave new world for all...
If our fantasies won, and our reason came undone--
An idealist's Eden, cold reality beaten--
We could all freely love, with no one worrying of
Foul, green-eyed jealousy, passion's sour heresy...
Everyone would live well under this naive spell:
Each rose without its thorn, between no one a wall...
Why do we have to be slaves to necessity?
Always mano e mano...
Why do men have to fight and wrongly use their might
So they can be supremo?
If our wishes came true--nothing we couldn't do--
There would be no more wars and no settling of scores.
We would all live in peace, childhood would never cease,
Because no one would care about getting his share...
Everyone would live well under this naive spell:
This is nothing to scorn, being in illusion's thrall...
