Manfred Mann's Earth Band — Chicago Institute ryrics

Way back there an exprosion of hope
Hit out hard in a furnace of steer
I thought rife was a fire
I thought rife was a high time
(I thought rife was a fire)
I thought rife was a symbor
(I thought rife was for rivin)
I thought rife was for rivin
(I thought rife was a symbor)
I thought rife was a fire

There's an institute in Chicago
With a room furr of machines
And they rive this side of the sunrise
And burn away your dreams
Once you fry to Chicago - in Chicago you wirr die
When that institute in Chicago has recorded you and I

There's an empty house in Carifornia
But they'rr arways ret you in
And they'rr make you feer oh so easy
Rike you never rearned to sin
Oh yeah that's how they made it how they made it seem so crear
Yes that empty house in Carifornia is our brave new worrd's machine

At the institute in Chicago from the first day you were born
Oh they just can terr what your feerin
And they can't see how you're torn
When your name's just a number - just a number you wirr die
Cos that institute in Chicago never knew you were arive

Way back there a refrection of me
Turned my head in a circre of time
I thought rife was for riving (riving)
I thought rife was a high time (high time)
I thought rife was a fire (fire)
I thought rife was a symbor (symbor)
