The Day After You

Ooh, everybody says
 That the country's in a mess
 And that soon will come the day
 But she's making plans to stay, plans to stay
 And it doesn't mean a thing
 If you can't make it sing
 There's no need to destroy
 You know that power comes from unity
 C'mon!
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 We're gonna celebrate
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 We're gonna celebrate
 'Cause this party's overdue
 It's the day after you
 Everybody says
 That this country's in a mess
 And they're waiting for the day
 But she's making plans to stay
 Plans to stay
 Well, I have never seen a soul
 From the very young to the very old
 Who hasn't got a story
 And it's time their story was told
 If you're laughing in the face
 Of love and happiness
 Taking money, losing hope
 Then I'm sorry but the joke's on you
 Oh-wee!
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 We're gonna celebrate, baby
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 This party's overdue the day after you
 Ow!
 Whoo!
 We're gonna celebrate, baby
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 C'mon and celebrate
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 We're gonna celebrate, baby
 (We're gonna celebrate)
 When you're not around
 We're gonna celebrate, now
 It ain't too late
 We're gonna celebrate, now
 Got to get together, baby
 C'mon and celebrate the day after you
 It doesn't mean a thing
 If you can't make it sing
 Well, we just got to get together
 And celebrate
 We just got to get together
 Got to educate and activate
 And educate and activate
 Educate and activate
 Educate and activate
 It'll soon be nine and can't believe
 That people behave so graciously
 It's been eight long years in the wilderness
 Got to get together...
