Hell In Paradise (peter Rauhofer Reconstruction Mix) Lyrics - Open Your Box (rmxs) - Yoko Ono

This is hell in paradise 

We're all asleep or paralyzed 

Why are we scared to verbalize 

Our multicolor dreams? 

When will we come to realize 

We're all stoned or pacified 

While the boogie men organize 

Their multilevel schemes 

Underqualified for love 

Overqualified for life 

Sticking our heads in slime 

Thinking we're in our prime 

Mesmerized by mythology 

Hypnotized by ideology 

Antagonized by reality 

Vandalized by insanity 

Desensitized by fraternity 

Sanitized by policy 

Jeopardized by lunacy 

This is hell 

Penalized by apathy 

And living in the world of fantasy 

Dancing on hot coal, waiting for the last call 

It's Adam's ball, Eve's call 

Wake up, shake up 

Check out, work out, speak out 

Reach out, it's time to, time to, time to 

To, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to 

This is hell in paradise 

None of us wish to recognize 

But do we want them to materialize 

An endangered species? 

Exorcise institution 

Exercise intuition 

Mobilize transition 

With inspiration for life
