I wanna scream. I wanna shout.
I wanna know what it's all about.
I've seen it before, but not like this.
I saw your name; it was on the list.

By 4 o'clock (It's gonna change.)
you were pretty high, (It's gonna change.)
lying on the floor, (It's gonna change.)
looking at the sky. (It's gonna change.)
I remember you (It's gonna change.)
when you were a kid. (It's gonna change.)
It was pretty strange, (It's gonna change.)
the things you did.

You've got to pull yourself together man.
You've got to get back on your feet again.
How can I ever make you understand?
You've got the world right in your hand.

No cold heart could turn away,
and not be moved by what I saw today:
there on the floor, thirty years or more,
he doesn't care; he just wants to score.

By 4 o'clock (It's gonna change.)
you were pretty high, (It's gonna change.)
lying on the floor, (It's gonna change.)
looking at the sky. (It's gonna change.)
I remember you (It's gonna change.)
when you were a kid. (It's gonna change.)
It was pretty strange, (It's gonna change.)
the things you did.

You've got to pull yourself together man.
You've got to get back on your feet again.
How can I ever make you understand?
You've got the world right in your hand.

You've got to pull yourself together man.
You've got to get back on your feet again.
How can I ever make you understand
you've got the world right in your hand?

Yet it only seems just like yesterday.
We used to run and hide.
Remember in the park where we used to play;
the grass looked ten foot high.

You've got to pull yourself together man.
You've got to get back on your feet again.
How can I ever make you understand?
You've got the world right in your hand.

You've got to pull yourself together man.
You've got to get back on your feet again.
How can I ever make you understand
you've got the world right in your hand?
