One of the Lost Songs Lyrics

From pranks, to protests
To sustainable community projects
From soup kitchens, to direct action
Education and sabotageIt's all about waking people up
'Cause we've all been put to sleep
By this monotonous lullaby
Yeah, we've all been fooledBy those sugar coated lies
When we're little kids
Maybe we need stories to help us go to sleep
But sooner or laterWe need stories to wake us up
Hey, wake up, nap's over
We wake up, each of us
Dreaming ourselves into existenceWe become the poem
We become the song
Each of us is the storyHappiness depends
On how well we tell it
(Utah Phillips)'Cause we've all been put to sleep
By this monotonous lullaby

Yeah, we've all been fooled
By those sugar coated lies
And their cheating crooked smiles
