fiogf49gjkf0d (Words and music copyright 2002 by Steve Swellander) Sometimes this life can get you down And weigh your heart with woe No doctor or priest can heal you Prayers and pills just leave you cold. You think that you’re a goner No one will miss you when you’re gone. Well friend, it’s time to clear your throat And break into song. Break into song, break into song The sun will shine upon your grief And warm your cold, sad soul Break into song, break into song Rise upon the wings of music And break into song. If you’re walking with a lady And things aren’t going well, She doesn’t laugh at all your jokes And the conversation’s stale, But she looks just like an angel And you want to keep her near, Just walk out under a streetlamp And break into song. Break into song, break into song She looks like Ginger Rogers And you feel like Fred Astaire. Break into song, break into song The stars will join in chorus If you break into song. If you want to fight for justice And you’re marching with a mighty throng, But the global corporate media Won’t turn their cameras on. You can march down to their studios And occupy en masse, And switch all the microphones on And break into song. Break into song, break into song We shall overcome with glory If we break into song Break into song, break into song We can build a better world If we build with a song Some people lack the confidence, Some people fear the shame, So they hold the joy inside And their spirit feels the pain. Don’t worry ‘bout the harmony, Pick a key, any key Take a mighty breath And break into song. Break into song, break into song, Like a Sacred Harp revival We can reach the promised land. Break into song, break into song With a voice to heal the heart Break into song x
