[Intro]
This race is already run
Get off your horse, get on this train
Hey-a, hey-a, oh
Welcome to the real world
I said, welcome to the real world
Are we rushing like the wind
Naked out and naked in?
Welcome to the free world
I said, welcome to the me world
Are we rushing like the wind?
[Interlude]
[Refrain]
Put your loving arms around
[Verse 1]
Did you lose your faith in God, no?
Does your conscience always get you down?
Fall to pieces, rough and tumble
Does your conscience always get you down?
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Refrain]
Put your loving arms around
[Verse 2]
This your New Year's resolution
Put your loving arms around
Nothing doing revolution
Put your loving arms around
[Bridge]
Take another leap in the dark
With a humble heart
Do yourself some good
What did you become?
Patience, be sure
Baby, baby
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Outro]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
This race is already run
Get off your horse, get on this train
Hey-a, hey-a, oh
Welcome to the real world
I said, welcome to the real world
Are we rushing like the wind
Naked out and naked in?
Welcome to the free world
I said, welcome to the me world
Are we rushing like the wind?
[Interlude]
[Refrain]
Put your loving arms around
[Verse 1]
Did you lose your faith in God, no?
Does your conscience always get you down?
Fall to pieces, rough and tumble
Does your conscience always get you down?
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Refrain]
Put your loving arms around
[Verse 2]
This your New Year's resolution
Put your loving arms around
Nothing doing revolution
Put your loving arms around
[Bridge]

Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Chorus]
These days it's all in the mind
It's elemental
Don't say you're up when you're down
It's elemental
[Outro]
These days it's all in the mind
