You can fill up a room with idle conversation

You can stir up a whole darn nation with your mouth

But before you start to show your indignation about a situation

You ought to take it all in and check it all out.

You can create a boom with catchy information

You can shake up a lot of people if you shout

But before you begin to grin about the success of your creation

You ought to take it all in and check it all out.

You can make out a plan with aimless dedication

You can hang up a million slogans in you house

But before you put it into operation, before you man your station

You ought to take it all in and check it all out.

You ought to take it all in and check it all out, find out what it's all about

You ought to take it all in and check it all out
