For all those who stood up and were counted For all those for whom money was no motive For all those for whom music was a message I want to thank you For making me A little more sure A little more wise And courageous You told me to look much further You told me to walk much more You told me that music matters And to chase the dogs back from my door I won't stop here I won't be still until the sun sets On us all Under the sheets with my radio Turn down low So nobody know It's the late night show Hopin' to hear Hey Joe Jimmy was my hero Head blown by Type are or was it the true star? From Dali Lama to Tanamo Curtis Mayfield Say Kurtis Blow Singing into my pillow And praying I don't dose Until my 9 Volt battery goes You told me to look much further You told me to walk much more You told me that music matters And to chase the dogs back from my door I won't stop here I won't be still until the sun sets On us all You told me to look much further You told me to walk much more You told me that music matters And to chase the dogs back from my door I won't stop here I won't be still until the sun sets On us all You told me that music matters You told me that music matters You told me that music matters You told me that music matters
