From the recording Alive and Well
Lyrics
Everybody wants a unicorn
To be unique but still belong
Waiting waiting with no patience
A hero who doesn’t want the fame
team member who won’t play the game
waiting waiting
so engaging
Ooh
Ch
Wake me up when the world is sober
Tell me when this show is over
The less they know the more they shout
watch the lies come slither out
hoping hoping each imploding
a madman tells us that he’s sane
while truth is quiet with distain
coping coping
watch them folding
Ooh
Ch x2
Uncovering all the ugliness
and try to tidy up the mess
then tell us that it’s more or less normal
We’re looking for humanity
while wading through this vanity
and the downright audacity is awful
Ch
Everybody wants a unicorn
