Some people think, think they have none
They might as well stay down
Running in circles like bulls in a ring
'Til the sword finds its way down

While the creep beats the rap on appeal
And the cop who can't stop
Shows the kids how to steal

And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

Hey you, on the brink, waiting to fall
To become human surplus
The movie's still shooting
You might still get the roll
And man, it's all just a circus

But the clown left town long ago
Maybe he'll come back and give us a show

And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away
