Ball of Confusion (Live) - Go West/Gary Stevenson
People moving out people moving in
Why because of the color of their skin
Run run run but you sho' can't hide
An eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth
Vote for me and I'll set you free
Rap on 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 that's what the world is today
Yeah yeah
The sale of pills is at an all time high
Young folks walkin' 'round with their heads in the sky
Cities aflame in the summer time and oh the beat goes on
Evolution revolution gun control the 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
Round and round and around we go
Where the world's headed nobody knows
Just a ball of confusion that's what the world is today
Yeah yeah
Just a ball of confusion
That's what the world is today
Yeah yeah
Fear in the air tension everywhere
Unemployment rising fast the beatle's 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
Round and round and around we go
Where the world's headed nobody knows
Just a ball of confusion
That's what the world is today
Yeah yeah
Just a ball of confusion
That's what the world is today
Yeah yeah
Ball of confusion that's what the world is today
Ball of confusion that's what the world is today
