Mission Statement

I punched the clock in at thirty-five

I thank the Lord that I'm still alive

Sometimes I find it hard to believe

That my heart's still beating

That I'm still on my feet

I'm gonna give you... gonna give you a mission statement

I've been in a downward spiral

For a very long, long time

I've been stepping over dollars

Just to pick up a shiny dime

The way I see it, it ain't gonna work

I'm kissing the past goodbye

I'm gonna give you... gonna give you a mission statement

I got no more patience; got no more time

I'm tired of following orders, sticking to the company line

I want to change the world, and I'm starting with myself

A private revalation concerning everybody else

We're all just lonely people

We're all looking for some help

Too busy crunching numbers and fighting for ourselves

All it takes is kindness and a little love and care

And this planet that we live on can be a Heaven we can share

A mission statement

The tears of hungry children are falling in the dust

The scraps of a rich man's table could fill their starving mouths

While some, they thirst for water; others get drunk on wine

To some, their lives a prison, and they're out there doing time

I'm gonna give you... give you a mission statement

I got no more patience; I got no more time

I'm tired of following orders, sticking to the company line

I want to change the world, and I'm starting with myself

A private revalation concerning everybody else

We're all just lonely people

We're all looking for some help

Too busy crunching numbers and fighting for ourselves

All it takes is kindness and a little love and care

And this planet that we live on can be a Heaven we can share

A mission statement
