(What a great time to be human)
There once was a boy who lost his own mother
Loved him to death and smothered his brother
The kids in the street all shouted with joy
New shoes on their feet, they danced to destroy
The boy became man, then ran to his lover
She cast a spell to bring back his mother
They went to the preacher and he banged a gong
The crooks and believers all sing the same song
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
Shanghai, summertime, follow your bliss (ooh—ooh)
Everything on the Earth keeps blooming
What a great time to be human
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
Shanghai, summertime, follow your bliss (ooh—ooh)
Everything on the Earth keeps blooming
What a great time to be human
(What a great time to be human)
There once was a girl who drank from the fountain
She left her youth halfway up the mountain
She went back to get it, but someone was there
They had her committed and shaved off her hair
They threw her a party with diamonds and spoons
But they were bloodsuckers with crocodile shoes
She went to the chemist to make her a dog
But he was dyslexic, so he made a God (God, God, God)
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
Shanghai, summertime, follow your bliss (ooh—ooh)
Everything on the Earth keeps blooming
What a great time to be human
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
Shanghai, summertime, follow your bliss (ooh—ooh)
Everything on the Earth keeps blooming
What a great time to be human
(What a great time to be human)
(Shanghai, summertime, goodbye)
(What a great time to be human)
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
Shanghai, summertime, follow your bliss (ooh—ooh)
Everything on the Earth keeps blooming
What a great time to be human, to be human, to be human
What a great time to be human
Rainbows, butterflies, what is all this?
