[verse 1: david byrne]
in national elections
in songs raised on high
with stirring emotions
as tears fill our eyes
in democratic fever
for national defense

[chorus 1: david byrne]
we are a mountain
we are a mountain
we are a mountain
like birds upon a fence
like birds upon a fence

[verse 2: david byrne]
young artists and writers
please heed the call
what’s good for business
is good for us all
and as it is in nature
so it is in life

[chorus 2: david byrne]
the weak among us perish
the weak among us perish
the weak among us perish
the strong alone survive
the strong alone survive
[bridge: mark mothersbaugh]
i say the lines
weak shall perish
strong shall survive

[verse 3: david byrne]
voices like thunder
decisions like steel
the past and the future
they belong to us all
from every mountain
the water and the land

[chorus 3: david byrne]
the world that we’ve created
the world that we’ve created
the world that we’ve created
by working hand in hand
by working hand in hand

- david byrne devo
