Dictation being forced in Afghanistan
Revolution in South Africa taking a stand
People in Eurasia on the brink of oppression
But it's gonna be alright
Cause the music plays forever on and on

And it's gonna be alright
Cause the music plays forever
On and on and on and on

Generations will come and go
But there's one thing for sure
Music is our life's foundation
And shall succeed all the nations to come

Cause the music plays forever
On and on and on and on

The year 3000 may still come to pass
But the music shall last
I can hear it on a timeless wavelength
Never dissipating but giving us strength

And it's gonna be alright
Cause the music plays forever
On and on and on and on

And it's gonna be alright
Cause the music plays forever
On and on and on and on

It's gonna be
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be

It's gonna be
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Alright, alright, alright now
