I scanned the menu options

I did not have a choice

I'd like to teach the world to sing

But I do not have a voice

So I bought myself a ticket

To the happening of the year

The sky lit up with colours

The crowd let out a cheer

It's just a sunset

Someone said

Something that happens every day

Yes it's a sunset

Someone said

But now they've found a way to make it pay

I like to look at pretty things

I like to feast my eyes

I went to see the Northern Lights

But they were pale and weak

And not as advertised

So now I'm learning about money

And I'm learning about law

The first rule of economics?

Unhappy people they spend more

It's just a sunset

Someone said

Something is coming to an end

Yes it's a sunset

Someone said

And just exactly how much did you spend?

Oh I'd like to teach the world to sing

But I do not have a voice

And I'd like to buy the world some time

Some time and a choice

Yes I'd like to teach the world to sing

But I I do not have a voice

And I'd like to buy the world some time

Some time

Some time

And a choice
