[Pre-Chorus]
It ain’t complicated
It ain’t hard to find
The greatest kind of wisdom
Is the wisdom of the kind

[Chorus]
Confucius said
(Confucius said)
Love what you do or don’t do it at all
Confucius said
(Confucius said)
A stumble ain’t a failure till you refuse to crawl
Learn from yesterday
Live for today
Look ahead to tomorrow
Confucius said
(oh Confucius said)
And the whole world heard him say

[Verse 2]
He said the strength of nations
Starts inside the home
Respect your father, love your mother
You are not alone
He said a man of virtue
Doesn’t chase the gold
The richest kind of living
Is a life that’s good and whole

[Pre-Chorus]
It ain’t complicated
It ain’t hard to find
The greatest kind of wisdom
Is the wisdom of the kind

[Chinese Orchestral instrumental interlude]

[Bridge]
Two and a half thousand years
And still his words ring true
The man who knew the world begins
With what you choose to do
He never built a palace
Never wore a crown
But every word he ever spoke
Still echoes all around

[Chinese Orchestral instrumental interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]
It ain’t complicated
It ain’t hard to find
The greatest kind of wisdom
Is the wisdom of the kind

[Outro]
Confucius said
(Confucius said)
Confucius said
(oh he said)
Choose a job you love
And you’ll never work a day
Confucius said
(Confucius said)
And we’re still listening
To every word today
