Last night the devil came out to play with me   Singing "let the games begin"   You know the harder I try to play his game   The more impossible to win      And I wonder aloud   Do they understand what the music means   You know a baby   Is singing the blues when it first screams      Playing for some dimes the rate of exchange   Laughing all the way   You know it doesn't really matter what they put us through   As long as we get to play      And I wonder aloud   Do they understand what the music means   You know a baby   Is singing the blues when it first screams      Feeling the crowd on a (seasonal/locational reference)   Freedom to call the tunes   You know you're the ones we came here for   And we won't be leaving soon      And we wonder aloud   Do they understand what the music means   You know a baby   Is singing the blues when it first screams      And we wonder aloud   We wonder aloud   Wonder, wonder, wonder aloud
