If you see shadows hanging 'round
Look around
That's the shadows of the men who've made history
Hanging 'round
You can see 'em in the White House or Times Square
Looking down
And while they're talking to the people there
Look around
And see what people everywhere
Are doing now
(Chorus)
Look around
Don't stand still or your brain's gonna rot
Look around
Take a look at the life that you've got
What's the use in being proud and having plenty
If you don't open up your eyes to see you're empty?
Look around
(Will Rogers)
Look and see what's happening out in the world
Look around
In the movies there are shadows there of girls
They're stars they're shadows on a movie screen
You see them in the light from the silver screen
Look around
It's your chance to see what you can see
And that's the story of the world of today
(Chorus)
Look around
Don't stand still or your brain's gonna rot
Look around
Take a look at the life that you've got
What's the use in being proud, and having plenty
If you don't open up your eyes to see you're empty?
Look around
(Will Rogers)
Look around and you'll see there are shadows of kids
Look around
They're in school looking for a little wisdom
They see it, some wisdom
But what's the reason for this reading and writing
If they're to grow up like their mothers
And their fathers in the shadows that they're fighting
Look around
(Chorus)
Look around
Don't stand still or your brain's gonna rot
Look around
Take a look at the life that you've got
What's the use in being proud, and having plenty
If you don't open up your eyes to see you're empty?
Look around
