Lyrics

I don’t believe in superstarsOrganic food and foreign carsI don’t believe the price of goldThe certainty of growing oldThat right is right and left is wrongThat north and south can’t get alongThat east is east and west is westAnd being first is always best
But I believe in loveI believe in babiesI believe in mom and dadAnd I believe in you
Well I don’t believe that heaven waitsFor only those who congregateI like to think of God as loveHe’s down below, he’s up aboveHe’s watching people everywhereHe knows who does and doesn’t careAnd I’m an ordinary manSometimes I wonder who I am
But I believe in loveI believe in musicI believe in magicAnd I believe in you
I know with all my certaintyWhat’s going on with you and meIs a good thingIt’s true, I believe in you
I don’t believe virginityIs as common as it used to beIn working days and sleeping nightsThat black is black and white is whiteThat Superman and Robin HoodAre still alive in HollywoodThat gasoline’s in short supplyThe rising cost of getting by
But I believe in loveI believe in old folksI believe in childrenI believe in you
I believe in loveI believe in babiesI believe in mom and dadAnd I believe in you
