Before the words there was the voice
Before the verse there was the sound
Before the form there was the music
Before the pen and paper
There was the hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Before we sing we take in breath
Imagine fire inside our chests
Then give it out together with one

When we were young
When we were young
We heard our mothers
When we were young
When we were young
We heard the beep beep beep beep
When we were young
When we were young
We heard our mothers

When we were young
When we were young
We heard the beep beep beep beep
Before the words there was the voice
Before the verse there was the sound
Before the form there was the music
Before the pen and paper
There was the sound
There was the sound
The sound

Woo woo woo woo
When we were young
When we were young
We heard our mothers
When we were young
When we were young

We heard the beep beep beep
When we were young
When we were young
We heard our mothers
When we were young
When we were young
We heard the beep beep beep
Woo woo woo
