Two feet going forward
one foot at a time, giving
every step a new direction
on the tracks of change
Who's in charge here?
the eye sees the path to go
the ear hearing fresh winds blow
the mind seems the one to know
Yet two feet shape their way
going further step by step
to targets and to destiny
where things come round
All is choice and choice is all
links together build the chain
of small events in a stream
flowing to the great blue sea

Two feet going forward
one foot at a time, giving
every step a new direction
on the tracks of change
Who's in charge here?
the eye sees the path to go
the ear hearing fresh winds blow
the mind seems the one to know
Yet two feet shape their way
going further step by step
to targets and to destiny
where things come round
All is choice and choice is all
links together build the chain
of small events in a stream
flowing to the great blue sea
