A little feeling in my gut that I get of late
|
When I think about these cats running the world with hate
|
I say: something's gotta give
|
|
Got the whole world fighting for the Texas chief
|
Got a little for you, I got a little for me
|
But the kettle's leaking like a sieve
|
|
There's a puddle on the floor
|
There's a puddle in the sky
|
The kettle's leaking so much man it's burning my eyes yeah
|
Can't you just throw that damn pot out
|
|
On the subject of throwing stuff away
|
I know some deaf men who can't hear a word we say
|
No matter, No matter how loud we do shout
|
|
And I say...
|
|
Something's gotta give right now boy
|
Something's gotta give right now for you
|
Something's gotta give right now man
|
Something's gotta give right now
|
|
I was reading the newspaper just yesterday
|
Got the headlines reading God bless the USA
|
And I thought: God Bless Everyone
|
|
God bless the people in New York when they were attacked
|
God bless the children being bombed there in Iraq
|
God bless the goddamn junkie with a monkey on his back
|
God bless everybody under the sun
|
|
Cause the world ahead will end if we don¡¯t got love
|
Do your job and pay attention to God above
|
But eventually the only guarantee will be that the tea in your tank will run dry
|
|
Because without love you know there aint no life
|
You can duplicate it and bottle it up all you like
|
But it doesn't mean you're gonna get another try
|
Get another try boy
|
|
Something's gotta give right now boy
|
Something's gotta give right now P-Yoo
|
Something's gotta give right now man
|
Something's gotta give right now
|
|
I Said..
|
Something's gotta give right now boy
|
Something's gotta give right now (Yeah)
|
Something's gotta give right now
|
Something's gotta give right now.....
