My hopes are high   But my eyes can't believe what they see, no   Oh, give me something to believe   Give me something to believe      Oh, I've got lucky in life and had plenty to eat   And I saw this world as one big pool of opportunity   Oh but there's too much mind corruption   Too little remedy or that's how it seems to me   Yeah, we need a moral education to set the young minds free      So let us change what we can and accept what we can't   And impart some of the wisdom from that tried and tested man   Oh, there's no harm in being wrong, you know, no   In fact to me, it's common ground, yeah      So take that feather from you cap, sir   And pass that feather around      My hopes are high   But my eyes can't believe what they see   Oh, give me something to believe in   Give me something to believe, yeah      Oh, my hopes are high   But my eyes can't believe what they see   Oh, my hopes are high   Oh, give me something   Give me something to believe
