Power to the people (oh, hey, hey) Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I've been tired of this thinking (hey) so I've drowned it out with drinking (oh) Tastes like a bitter pill but I'll just wash it down With the taste of something sweet that some doctor gave me now And this is a madness I'm not giving in
We're shining like diamonds With fire in our bones Standing beside you I've a feeling that I'll never walk alone
We're children of the universe, don't you know Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own Just children of the universe
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey) Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh) Power to the people (oh, hey, hey) You know what we want and we've gotta get it now
Something's stirring in the silence (hey, hey) And it reeks of passive violence (oh) Hold on tight this opportunity we'll take, put an end to all this suffering before it gets too late Hopes on the horizon I'm not giving in
We're children of the universe don't you know Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own Just children of the universe
We're shining like diamonds With love in our hearts They said it's the end but I've a feeling It might just be the start As I am awakened with fire in my bones Standing beside you I've a feeling that I'll never walk alone
We're children of the uni, children of the uni, Children of the universe don't you know Yeah dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own 'Cause we are children of the universe Just children of the universe
