Feel The Benefit
You went out on the street without your shoes onYou didn't listen what your mama saidShe said you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefitAnd if we all went out without our shoes onTell me where would we be, where would we be
If all the people in the world lost their reasonWhat would we see, where would we beIf all the entertainers in the world lost their musicWhat would they play, what could they sayTo pacify the crowd, to justify themselvesWon't feel the benefit
You're like a cloud behind the sunLike the face behind the clownYou're moving like the wrinkles in a frownAnd you can never look back
A leaf that's borne upon the windA cardboard suitcase in your handThe wanderer soon returnsAnd finds the color of the grass is just the sameOn the other side of the tracks, oh no
Ooh when you smile it's like a holidayOoh pack your bags and we can get awayWe'll float on a Queen down to RioThere's no need to shaveWe'll be drinking the rum and a punch
You can walk on the waterYou can dabble in the mumbo jumboYou can dance into the fireFloat like a cloud over Rio, Rio
You can ride with the GauchosSwinging your bolas in a red bandanaYou can run with the devilTaking your chances with Senorita
You can drink a lot of coffee in BrazilBut the bill is gonna make you ill
Feel the benefit
So, you can go out on the street and take your chancesBut if you do, you better do it rightOr you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefitSpin the wheel and take your chancesAnd your number might come upThough the odds may be in favor of the house
If all the people in the world would say togetherWe're all black and white, we're all day and nightIf all the people in the world could sing togetherHow would it sound, what would we feel
We'd all feel the benefit
