Oh Well

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now, when I talked to God I knew he'd understand
He said, "Stick by my side and I'll be your guiding hand
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to"
Oh well

Everything I do gohn be funky!
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on, yeah
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
I have to be myself & do my thing
A little soul can't do no harm, yeah
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on, yeah
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on, yeah
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on, yeah
Some may say I've got no class, but I'm doin' what I wanna do
So go with me if you can, or just do what you can do
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on, yeah
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
Never before have I felt so good just bein' natural me
My little hang up & my little times, but deep inside I'm free
Let your hair down, get down wings
Who's to say what's right or wrong?
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on
Everything I do gohn be funky from now on

Turn on my V.C.R.
Same one I've had for years
James Brown on the T.A.M.I. show
Same tape I've had for years
I sit in my old car
Same one I've had for years
Old battery's running down
It ran for years and years
Turn on the radio
The static hurts my ears
Tell me where would I go
I ain't been out in years
Turn on the stereo
It's played for years and years
An Otis Redding song
It's all I own
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
Plug in my M.C.I
To excercise my brain
Make records on my own
Can't go out in the rain
Pick up the telephone
I've listened here for years
No one to talk to me
I've listened here for years
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When I feel lonely here
Don't waste my time with tears
I run 'Deep Throat' again
It ran for years and years
Don't like the food I eat
The cans are running out
Same food for years and years
I hate the food I eat
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around

Wayfaring Stranger
06:06
|

I am a poor wayfaring stranger,
Travelin' through this world of woe.
Yet there's no toil, no sicknessl, no danger,
In that bright land to which I go.
I'm goin' there to see my mother.
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only goin' over Jordan.
I'm only goin' over home.
I know dark clouds will hover o'er me
I know my way is rough and steep.
But golden fields lie on before me,
And these weary eyes no more shall weep.
I'm goin' there to see my father.
He said he'd meet me when I come.
I'm only goin' over Jordan.
I'm only goin' over home.
I'll soon be free of every trial
This form will rest beneath the sod
I'll drop the cross of self denial
And enter in at one with god
I'm going there to see my saviour
He said he'd meet me when I come
I'm only goin' over Jordan.
I'm only goin' over home.

Sign O' The Times
03:58

Oh yeah
In France a skinny man
Died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle
And soon she did the same
At home there are seventeen-year-old boys
And their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called The Disciples
High on crack, totin' a machine gun
Time, time
Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church
And killed everyone inside
You turn on the telly and every other story
Is tellin' you somebody died
Sister killed her baby 'cuz she couldn't afford to feed it
And we're sending people to the moon
In September my cousin tried reefer for the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's June
Times, times
It's silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies
Oh why
Time, time
Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn
Time, times
It's silly, no?
When a rocket blows
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy, truly
Until a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why, Sign O the Times
Times, times
Sign O the Times mess with your mind
Hurry before it's to late
Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
We'll call him Nate... if it's a boy
Times, times
Times, times

War Pigs
07:28
|
|

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to Mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds...
Oh Lord yeah!
Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgment day comes, yeah!
Now in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of Judgment, God is calling
On their knees the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...
Oh Lord, yeah!
