Every day I commit a crime
When take the time to speak my mind
I had a revelation today but I’ve forgotten what it was
All I see is problems and a need to reveal the cause
I say it’s about time, for the alternative state of mind
Don’t live single day without ringing ears
Takes a little bit of groove just to kill my fears
If there's a revolution to break the institutions of their evil binds
It’s the evolution of the alternative state of mind
I say it’s about time, for the alternative state of mind
Step over the line, have an alternative state of mind
Cross over the lines, have an alternative state of mind
You could be ditch digger,
A blues singer,
A waiter or a nun
A doctor, nurse,
A father or a son.
A profit, a priest
A teacher or a preacher,
A politician in a position to cross over the lines
Open your eyes and you might just find
An alternative state of mind
