Testo Future Shock - Curtis Mayfield
Testo della canzone Future Shock (Curtis Mayfield), tratta dall'album People Never Give Up
We got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Hey, little sister
Where's your brother?
See your mother
Standing on the soup line
God bless your father
Ain't got the strength to be bothered
The almighty world he made there
Was bound to weigh him down
We got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shock
Future shock, future shock
High worthy figures
Playing on niggers
Oh, see them dancing
See how they're dancing to the super fly
Oh, ain't it wrong
When you don't know where it come from?
Gassing in our youth
Dying if it's true
We keep over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over
Over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over, over
We got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shock
Hey, big sister
Where's your mister?
Late to the ball, trying to get home
It's alright
What's going on?
You seem always alone
Could it be a man, he's in jail, you know?
We got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shock
Future shock, future shock
The price of the meat
Higher than the dope in the street
Is it any wonder
For those with nothing to eat?
Some got it made
But still seem so afraid
There's no love for his brother
No plans for another
Future shock, what's been going on?
Future shock, everyone's alone
Future shock, don't know the people
Future shock, afraid of the steeple
Future shock
Future shock
