(Celebrate) The Day After You

Ooh, everybody says That the country's in a mess And that soon will come the day But she's making plans to stay, plans to stay And it doesn't mean a thing If you can't make it sing There's no need to destroy You know that power comes from unity C'mon! (We're gonna celebrate) We're gonna celebrate (We're gonna celebrate) We're gonna celebrate 'Cause this party's overdue It's the day after you Everybody says That this country's in a mess And they're waiting for the day But she's making plans to stay Plans to stay Well, I have never seen a soul From the very young to the very old Who hasn't got a story And it's time their story was told If you're laughing in the face Of love and happiness Taking money, losing hope Then I'm sorry but the joke's on you Oh-wee! (We're gonna celebrate) We're gonna celebrate, baby (We're gonna celebrate) This party's overdue the day after you Ow! Whoo! We're gonna celebrate, baby (We're gonna celebrate) C'mon and celebrate (We're gonna celebrate) We're gonna celebrate, baby (We're gonna celebrate) When you're not around We're gonna celebrate, now It ain't too late We're gonna celebrate, now Got to get together, baby C'mon and celebrate the day after you It doesn't mean a thing If you can't make it sing Well, we just got to get together And celebrate We just got to get together Got to educate and activate And educate and activate Educate and activate Educate and activate It'll soon be nine and can't believe That people behave so graciously It's been eight long years in the wilderness Got to get together...
