[REMINISCE AND SPECULATION]<br /><br />You went out on the street without your shoes on<br />You didn't listen what your momma said<br />She said you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit<br />And if we all went out without our shoes on<br />Tell me where would we be, where would we be <br /><br />If all the people in the world lost their reason<br />What would we see, where would we be<br />If all the entertainers in the world lost their music<br />What would they play, what could they say<br />To pacify the crowd, to justify themselves<br />Won't feel the benefit <br /><br />You're like a cloud behind the sun<br />Like the face behind the clown<br />You're moving like the wrinkles in a frown<br />And you can never look back<br />A leaf that's borne upon the wind<br />A cardboard suitcase in your hand<br />The wanderer soon returns<br />And finds the colour of the grass is just the same<br />On the other side of the tracks, oh no <br /><br />["A" LATIN BREAK]<br /><br />Ooh when you smile it's like a holiday<br />Ooh pack your bags and we can get away<br />We'll float on a Queen down to Rio<br />There's no need to shave<br />We'll be stinking like rum in a punch <br /><br />You can walk on the water<br />You can dabble in the mumbo jumbo<br />You can smoke a little ganja<br />Float like a cloud over Rio, Rio<br />You can ride with the Gauchos<br />Swinging your bolas in a red bandana<br />You can run with the devil<br />Takin' your chances with Senorita <br /><br />You can drink a lot of coffee in Brazil<br />But the bill is gonna make you ill <br /><br />FEEL THE BENEFIT <br /><br />So, you can go out on the street and take your chances<br />But if you do, you better do it right<br />Or you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit<br />Spin the wheel and take your chances<br />And your number might come up<br />Though the odds may be in favor of the house <br /><br />If all the people in the world would say together<br />We're all black and white, we're all day and night<br />If all the people in the world could sing together<br />How would it sound, what would we feel <br /><br />We'd all feel the benefit
