Ball of Confusion (That's What the World is Today)
Lyricist:Barrett Strong, Norman Jesse Whitfield
One two One two three four, oh
People movin' out, people movin' 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 talkin' 'bout love thy brother is the preacher And it seems nobody's interested in learnin' 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, hey, hey
The sale of pills are at an all time high Young folks walkin' '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 Shootin' 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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Where the world's headed, nobody knows
Oh, great Googa Mooga Can't you hear me talkin' to you? Just a ball of confusion Oh yeah, that's what the world is today, 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
Great Googa Mooga Can't you hear me talkin' to you? Just a ball of confusion That's what the world is today, hey hey Let me hear you, let me hear you, let me hear you Sayin' ball of confusion That's what the world is today, hey, hey
Let me hear you, let me hear you, let me hear you Let me hear you, let me hear you Sayin' ball of confusion
