Last night I had a dream that the world was changin
Changin by leaps and bounds
It started up in the bigger cities
And its spread to the smaller towns
And the people began to smile at people
Theyd never even seen
And when Jeremiah woke me up this morning
I was ready to live that dream
Its a brand new day
Its brand new way
Yeah, its a brand new day
Its brand new way
Mother called father on the telephone
Because she was upset
She said, The boy left home, naked this mornin
All he took was the TV set
And then the sister picked up the extension
And she said, Hes just doin his thing
And then the father hung up on the mother
And all the children began to sing
Its a brand new day
Doin in a brand new way
Mama, its a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
We gotta put our heads together
And see where we go from here
We gotta fight for what we believe in
Cause theres somethin in the air
Its a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
Mama, its a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
Twenty million shadows stormin at the gates
How can we be surprised
With the image of their fallen kings
Reflected in their eyes
And the twenty million tongues are shoutin now
Its only heard by a precious few
But the years of night are gonna pass forever
When the sun comes shinin through
On a a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
Its a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
Mama, its a brand new day
And you have had your way
Mama, how were doin in a brand new way
And you have had your way
Its a brand new day
Were doin in a brand new way
Were gonna do it our way
