Dull as dirt You can`t assert the kind of light That might persuade A strict dictator to retire Fire the army Teach the poor origami The truth is in The proof is when You hear your heart start asking, "What`s my motivation,"
And try as you may, there isn`t a way To explain the kind of change That would make an Eskimo renounce fur That would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster Unless you can trace this about-face To a certain sign...
Chorus: Shine Make `em wonder what you`ve got Make `em wish that they were not On the Outside looking bored Shine Let it shine before all men Let `em see good works and then Let `em glorify the Lord Out of the shaker and onto the plate It isn`t Karma It sure ain`t fate That would make a deadhead sell his van That would make a schizophrenic Turn in his crayons Oprah freaks And science seeks a rationale That shall excuse This strange behavior
When you let it shine You will inspire The kind of entire turn-around That would make a bouncer take ballet (even bouncers who aren`t happy) But out of the glare With no where to turn You ain`t gonna learn it on "What`s my line?"
(repeat Chorus till end)
