John Reuben Lyrics
"Universal"

Put it out there ask for it adamantly passionate
With a fist in the air like an activist
Y'all need a little bit of happiness
The world's mad enough as is, you want realistic?

This is entertainment, we decorate it
We can hide away and make a day of it
Got a lot of information, what good can you do with it?
Telling us what the real world isn't
Doesn't make you any more in it

I believe good things can happen
Sing along as the world's collapsing
Crack a smile in good fashion
Take a break from the action

Universal, it's a small world
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal
Universal, find eternal
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal

Y'all need to move to it, do it, don't play stupid
You get your hands in the atmos, go on ahead and clap those
This goes out to those who know
How to let go and enjoy the show
From down the road to around the globe

What little we know I'm willing to let go, breathe slow
Optimist in a moshpit
Sit down on top of the world with a good view to watch it
Organize the chaotic
Talk to God like it's obvious
None of which consists of politics or the apocalypse

Universal, it's a small world
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal
Universal, find eternal
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal

The night is yours to enjoy, give us what we came here for
Love builds pride destroys, lift your voice and make some noise
Picket signs protest justice for the oppressed
It all feels pretty hopeless, take a moment to catch your breath

Feet on the floor, music in the air
Reality will still be there for you when the song is through
Twenty four seven breaking news
This just in but I'm not paying attention
Ignorance isn't bliss but taking a break from it is

Universal, it's a small world
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal
Universal, find eternal
Cosmic meltdown, dress is formal
