People moving out, people moving in. Why, because of the color of their skin.
Run, run, run but you sure can't hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Vote for me and I'll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on. Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the...(preacher.) And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the...(teacher.) Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation. Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. The sale of pills are at an all time high. Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky. The cities ablaze in the summer time. And oh, the beat goes on. Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul. Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon. Politicians say more taxes will solve everything. And the band played on. So, round and around and around we go. Where the world's headed, nobody knows. (Instrumental) Oh, great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Just a ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. Fear in the air, tension everywhere. Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record's a gas. And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation. And the band played on. Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors, Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills, Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.' And the band played on. (Instrumental) Great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Ball of confusion. |

Have you ever had one of those days Where it all is going wrong And it just can't seem to get along? But through it all you know you're gonna make it. Call it true love Call it not meant to be You can call it anything at all, you see. Call it what you want It's all the same to me. Music means a lot to me Like love, I make it when I can. All I am is all I'll ever be And that's just a boy from Texarkana. But now and then oh, but once in a while, They start treating me like some kind of superstar. Need I mention, at the end of the day What matters most of all It's not where you're at Or where you're comin' from When all is said and done You can call it... Heavy metal, hard-core, pop, punk, or thrash You can call it anything, it don't matter to me Call it what you want It's all music to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing... Baby's lyin' in the cradle Universe is all within his reach Wearin' rags or mink and sable Needs a guidin' hand or it's out on the streets Now momma's out She's never at home Daddy's taking care of business He's out on the road It's rainin' cats and dogs But the child within us all must face the storm Call it individuality Some call it fate, others reality Call it what you want It doesn't matter to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing! |

But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed I'm not alone, than I am People seem to think I'm superman But I watch for the love I'm living in the day of the eagle, the eagle not the, dove It's like a weight, that brings me down If I don't move, I'm on the ground It's in my mind, Its in my soul It's telling me the things I can't be told It's a watch for the love Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove Another day, another night I want to love, they want to fight I need the time, I got to be alone I got to meet a lover on my own I watch for the love Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove |

Something to make us all happy Do anything take us out of this gloom Sing a song, play guitar Make it snappy You are the one who can make us all laugh But doing that you break out in tears Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had We wouldn't have known you all these years repeat x2 |

Down on the corner, walkin' the streets. She smiles for ev'ryone she meets. He's not a man, no, he's just another trick. She'd do it all just to get that fix. Did you do it for love? Did you do it in the name of love? No, it ain't love she's gonna find. She's got just one thing on her mind: Chorus: Money. She did, she did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. Cold in the city with the traffic slow. He's got nobody, no place to call home. But he's got a habit, oh, that he can't control; Takin' hard earned money from a poor, helpless soul. Didn't do it for love. Didn't do it in the name of love. No, it ain't love he's out to find. He's got just one thing on his mind: Chorus: Money. He did, he did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. Bridge: And the young girl, she gets down on her knees, she's there to please. She wants her money. And then the young man says, "Now, put your hands in the air. Give me what I want, Give me what I need. Now don't you see? All I want, all I want, all I want is your money, yeah. Give it to me!" He's got the money, left the scene of the crime. Not a clue would he leave behind. One's bad misfortune make for another's eats. And now the young girl's trick's his treat. Chorus: Money. He did, he did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. For the money. He did it, did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. |

I ain't no program on your television screen.
They only taught me what they wanted me to be. Heard all your so-called facts. Now hit me with the truth. Takes a lotta nerve the way you played me for the fool. It's my personal selection to fly in my own direction. No time for fuckin' 'round with mediocrity. Takes ev'rything I got just tryin' to be me. Life's like a highway. We're all try'n' to stay on time. Travel atcha own speed. You take your lane, I'll take mine. Don't believe all that you hear or half of whatcha see. 'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me. (Chorus:) Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me. You be you and I'll be me. Don't de-rock me. "Backstage Betty", banana in her cherry, in the shower down on her knees. Like to think she'll own ya if she'll do all that ya please. Hurts like a mother bein' cursed by a punter who's five sheets to the wind. Won't stop at nothin', claimin' to be cousin till security lets 'em in. Now I'm no symbol of perfection, so why deal with this infection? Tired of bein' treated like some piece of property. Fakes, lies, patronizin' don't sit well with me. Blastin' down the highway, try'n' to stay between the lines. You can get to where you're go'n'. Just don't ignore the signs. Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me. 'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me. (Chorus) |

Look at me, I'm young and bold. Even though I may be growin' old, I'm never slowin' down. No, I won't slow down. I feel like dynamite, I'm ready to explode. Amplifier pushin' overload. Outta touch with reality To the point of insanity, yeah. Chorus: Goin' down on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast. Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down. Opinion is a piece of mind. Some are good, some are just like Where the sun don't shine. You know sometimes they can stick out loud, yeah. Now, the more you look, the more you're gonna find. More than enough to blow your mind. It's such a mess, it's a cryin' shame. And we've only got ourselves to blame. Chorus: Goin' down on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast. Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down. So just stop, let me off. Seems that I can't get my point across to you. I know you're listening, But I'm just not getting through, yeah, yeah. Now there's one more thing I would like to say: This is everybody's world and everybody's Gonna live it their own way, No matter what we say, yeah! Now the headlines read all across the lands 'Bout the motherfuckers gettin' way outta hand. Troubled minds are full of hate, Willin' to destroy the human race.

What i feel is what i say,
I’m keeping it real so never mind the taste, Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth, So give me the reason not the excuse, Even the things i can hardly believe, Is something that i can use, I’ll never be your alibi, Or tell you what you want to hear, Knowing that i’d rather die. Than have my words be insincere, I GOT NO GLORY, So i’m gonna give it to you like it is, If you want to hear the real story, And not some candy coated lie COME AND GET IT To falsify don’t make no sense, I’d rather deal with the consequences, Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth, So give me the reason not the excuse, Even the things i can hardly believe, Is something that i can use I’ll never need an alibi, Don’t sell it to me out of fear I told you that i’d rather die. Than have my words be insincere I GOT NO GLORY, So i’m gonna give it to you like it is, If you want to hear the real story, And not some candy coated lie I GOT NO GLORY, So i’m gonna give it to you like it is, If you want to hear the real story, And not some candy coated lie COME AND GET IT |

There she stood in living color, standin' all alone. So I walked up to her, I say, "How do you do?" And she said, "I don't". Lady Luck took a walk. When all I wanted was some company. Lady Luck took a walk. You know she walks right out on me. Hard as it seems, but not as hard to believe. What can it be? I guess I'm on a losin' streak. And I know it's true, I got a bad attitude.

Now, I don't wanna waste your time,
I only want to satisfy. So wind me up and watch me go, I'm gettin' crazy as the night unfolds. Gimme, gimme what I want, Keep it up now, don't stop, And I will do the same for you. I'm gonna take it over the top. Pre-chorus: What you see ain't what you get, There's more than meets the eye. 'Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet. It's up to us, me and you, Together we can fly high, high. Chorus: I got you, now you got me. Feels so good to be Makin' magic, makin' magic, It ain't no mystery. Come on! Get down, way down low. C'mon let's get on with the show. And let the music set you free. Like a leaf in the wind, let it be. Gimme what I need to satisfy This dirty one-track mind. You know I ain't got nothin' but time To burn with you tonight. 2nd Pre-chorus: Now anything you see is everything you get At your desire. I know it's makin' you hot and know it's soakin' me wet. Higher and higher, feedin' the fire, Let it burn. 2nd Chorus: He's got her and she's hot and you got me. Don't it taste so sweet! Makin' magic, makin' magic, It ain't no mystery. Now, when I get into you, get into me. The rest is history. Makin' magic, makin' magic, Let's get it together. C'mon. Ready, get set, just like one two and three! Bridge: Now it's taking me away to that magical land. Many will search and never find what's yours and mine. Outro-chorus: You got me burnin' hot, now you're soakin' me wet. Even better thana lick and a kiss. Makin' magic, makin' magic, It ain't no mystery. Now, you think you've seen it all. You ain't seen nothin' yet. It sure beats the rest. Makin' magic, makin' magic, It ain't no mystery. |

Such a heavy price to pay,
all the time that I spent missing home, and I try not to complain, but sometimes it won't leave me alone, and I think that I know myself better than anyone else. Cause I'm me I ought to know, what I want, what I need, what's inside of me. Maybe something that took, to get out of my head or took for the thrill, the way that I dress, the way that I look, or the way that I pay the bills. Cause your miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong, cause your miles away, miles away, how could you know the score. All eyes on the stage now the glitter and the glow. Move to the rhythm while striking a pose. Music and melody words to a poem. You think that you know me, you're not even close. Though I'm living out my dreams, wasn't long 'till I figured it out. Nothin' ever comes for free even here on a merry-go-round. So you wanna take a ride, rollin' and living the life, cause you think I got it made. Well in case you don't know my friend died today, and it's tearing me apart. If I knew what to say, don't know where to start. I reach down in my heart and with paper and pen put it in a song. 'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong? 'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you know the score? All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow. Move to the rhythm while striking a pose. Music and melody and words to a poem. You think that you know me, You're not even close. The pages have burned but they're written in stone. Now what will become of us now nobody knows, and the wheel keeps on turning and I rise and I fall, and I'll try to get back but I'm lost in it all, and I look all around and I see that it's gone. Your miles away. Miles away. 'Guitar Solo' Your miles away. Yeah your miles away. Miles away. Yeah your miles away. |

In a world far from perfect
It's not always easy to connect Where everything can be so complicated I know that 'simply, you're the best' I don't want nobody else, I only want you Wanna keep you for myself, it's selfish, but true I don't want anything, to ever come between us 'Cause I don't want nobody else In a world far from perfect...still One never knows what to expect, so tell me what will I do? So hard to think of you as 'dearly departed' If only desperation could resurrect 'Cause I don't want nobody else, I only want you Not some picture on a shelf, no...'cause that won't carry me through How does debilitated, find the strength to make it through 'Cause I don't want nobody else, only you Now I don't want nobody else, I only want you And not some picture on a shelf, on no... 'Cause that won't carry me through How does asphyxiated, ever find the breath to make it through 'Cause I don't want nobody else, I don't want nobody else, only you, only you... |
