作词 : Robert Lamm 作曲 : Robert Lamm Are you optimistic 'bout the way things are going No I never ever think of it at all
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down
No I try to mind my business that is no business at all
When it's time to function as a feeling human being Will your bachelor of arts help you get by
I hope to study further a few more years or so I also hope to keep a steady high
Will you try to change things Use the power that you have the power of a million new ideas
What is this power you speak of and this need for things to change I always thought that everything was fine
Everything is fine Don't you feel repression just closing in around
No the campus here is very very free
Don't it make you angry the way war is dragging on Well I hope the president knows what he's into I don't know
I don't know
Don't you ever see the starvation in the city where you live
All the needless hunger all the needless pain
I haven't been there lately the country is so fine But my neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
Haven't got the time
Thank you for the talk you know you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes of things to come
Well if you had my outlook your feelings would be numb
You'd always think that everything was fine
Everything was fine
