Look at all the people in the doorways, people on the street People in the hallways, people love to meet People in their feelings are locked in paradise Look at all the people in the houses, people on the stairs People and their visions, you'll see them everywhere Atomic people, they'll all move away It's mass exodus day today People walk, people fly, people sing, people sigh People lose, people try, hurt people cry, people live, people die People laugh ha-ha-ha, yes they laugh ha-ha-ha We're all laughin' Look at all the people lose their meaning while others stand and stare They don't move like clockwork, you'll see them in the air The flying people, they'll express a way It's mass exodus day today People walk, people fly, people sing, people sigh People lose, people try, hurt people cry, people live, people die People laugh ha-ha-ha, yes they laugh ha-ha-ha We're all laughin' And what will happen to the family when the day comes When the child no longer owes his existence to two biological parents Genetic engineering, life can now begin in a test tube And the idea both fascinates and appeals to me Carbon copy people, are you a clone? - NO!! People walk, people fly, people sing, people sigh People lose, people try, hurt people cry, people live, people die People laugh ha-ha-ha, yes they laugh ha-ha-ha Oh they laugh ha-ha-ha People, oh yes they're laughing at me now-ow People walk, people fly, people sing, people sigh People lose, people try, hurt people cry, people live, people die People laugh ha-ha-ha, yes they laugh ha-ha-ha Oh they laugh ha-ha-ha
