Song Of Scatland

By Scatman John

Imagine a land of love

Where people have time to care

Where everybody's equal

And we all tell the truth



If you're wondering where this magical place is

You don't have to look too far

You'll find it between your deepest dreams and warmest wishes



The society of Scatland is composed of

Very loving caring people who have

Never even heard of political corruption

Class distinction, war and all the

Other stuff that goes on in the world of earth people.

Everyone is equal in Scatland.

Everyone is equal. Everyone is equal.



We've got to believe in love - that's all there ever will be

That's all there's ever been - for you and me.



All people of Scatland are very childlike they have

Had happy complete childhoods they were

allowed to develop their imaginations to the fullest.

There is only love and happiness in Scatland

Hatred and resentment?

Well that's unheard of. It's unheard of.



We've got to believe in love - that's all there ever will be

That's all there's ever been - for you and me



I wonder if you're wondering where Scatland is?

It isn't far away. I'll take you there now.

Just close your eyes, make a wish, give yourself a hug.

You're half-way there, just love yourself - love yourself

And a dream will come true. You'll find yourself in Scatland

And suddenly discover that the person from Scatland is you.



The people of Scatland speak in Scatish

Scatish is a language not quite like a leprechaun

It sounds like a language of the people of earth

Who speak in a tongue of their own.

You're all from Scatland. Hatred and resentment?

Well that's unheard of. It's unheard of.



We've got to believe in love - that's all there ever will be

That's all there's ever been - for you and me.

We've got to believe in love - that's all there ever will be

That's all there's ever been - for you and me.



This is a brand new day know what I say,

Love is understanding.

Believe me believe me believe me.



We've got to believe in love - that's all there ever will be

That's all there's ever been - for you and me.
