[Verse 1]
Could it be that one small voice
Doesn't count in the room
Yellow like a geisha gown
Denying all the way
Could this by three be ten
Honor marches on
Yellow like a geisha gown
Denial all the way

[Chorus]
Shaking through
Opportune
Shaking through
Opportune

[Verse 2]
Are we grown way too far
Taking after rain
Yellow like a geisha gown
Denying all the way

[Chorus]
Shaking through
Opportune
Shaking through
Opportune

[Bridge]
In my life

[Verse 3]
Ears that are still
Children of today on parade
Yellow like a geisha gown
Denying all the way

[Chorus]
Shaking through
Opportune
Shaking through
Opportune

[Outro]
Shaking through
Opportune
Shaking through
Opportune

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
