[Verse 1: Anthony with John Frusciante]
The curtain is open, a head to put dope in
Now we will come clean it
The future, we've seen it
No, no, I know— I said, no, no
It's like a dream that falls away
Into the night, where we can play
I'm on a train, one happy day
Two eyes for sight, three times I pray, hey

[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante]
Soda pop, we've got to set up shop
And when the weather comes, we've got a pressure drop
We don't know, but every day I go
To see what I can bring into a cameo
(Ooh) Oh-oh! Oh, no! Bah-da-ra-de-ro-pom

[Chorus: Anthony Kiedis]
We believe
We believe
We believe (Climb a tree for monkey business)
(Write a check-out to forgiveness)
We believe (All the world on half an acre)
(Pushing dirt into a quaker)
Oh!

[Verse 2: Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante, Both]
The mission, the method
The downfall arrested
'Cuz it's not the first time, nor is it the worst time
No, no! Oh, no! Bah-da-ra-de-ro-pom (Uuh!)
To see the bird without a care
For in a word, it's nice out there
In a tree, my mama bear will be all right with proper care
(Hey) Hey, hey! Hey, oh! Bah-da-ra-de-ro-pom

[Bridge: Anthony Kiedis]
Ha! Mh— Yeah
Uh— Whoa!

[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis]
Boomerang into a bigger bang
A little cry of love, because they cannot sing
Cherokee, what did the pharaoh see?
Another time and space, another place to be

[Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with people]
We believe, we believe
We believe, we believe
We believe (Climb a tree for monkey business)
(Write a check-out to forgiveness)
We believe (All the world on half an acre)
(Pushing dirt into a quaker)
We believe (Climb a tree for monkey business)
(Write a check-out to forgiveness)
We believe (All the world on half an acre)
(Pushing dirt into a quaker)
Yeah

[Outro: Anthony Kiedis]
The motive, the measure
The purpose, the pleasure
The risk, is it worth it?
The disc, is it perfect?
I found you amongst them
The flower with young stem
Disparage, the broken
The marriage, eloping
