′Cause we can be what we wanna be

And we need to be what we gotta be

That's what we oughta be in the DIY world

Tomorrow belongs to the brave (′cause we can be what we wanna be)

Not the slave, but the brave (and we need to be what we gotta be)

(Do it yourself, do it yourself, DIY world)

Gamma rays, tidal waves, influenza

There's so many ways the human race can take a hit

We're gonna sink

But you can swim

If you don′t mind a little change of skin

Designer genes are a better fit

Cause we can be what we wanna be

And we need to be what we gotta be

That′s what we oughta be in the DIY world

Tomorrow belongs to the brave ('cause we can be what we wanna be)

Not the slave, but the brave (and we need to be what we gotta be)

(Do it yourself, do it yourself, DIY world)

Rising seas, no more trees

Then be a freakin′ fleet of killer bees!

We're masters of creation

DNA is the way

Now that evolution′s had its day

Intelligent design solutions

And we, we could live for a thousand years

Cause we can be what we wanna be

And we need to be what we gotta be

That's what we oughta be in the DIY world

Cause we can be what we wanna be (do it to yourself)

And we need to be what we gotta be (do it to yourself)

That′s what we oughta be in the DIY world (do it, do it yourself)

Tomorrow belongs to the brave (do it to yourself, to yourself)

Not the slave, but the brave (to yourself, to yourself)

(To yourself, to yourself, do it to yourself) (DIY world)

Imagine! We can produce superstrength

Electric reflexes

Powers once reserved for the ancient gods are now within our grasp!

And we, we could live (we could live)

For a thousand years
