V1)
Soothin' all you young people, lets keep reminding
Let me remind you
Preachin' for what to believe in, you've got to believe
You have to believe
Ch)
You've got to be just what you want
You've got to be what you want
Why can't we be just what we want
You've got to be what you want
I know what I've been told
I know what I've been sold
I know, I know, Oh Yeah
V2)
Hard times too much confusion
Gotta find some conclusion, this world of confusion
A long lost line of defences I'll blow them
Away, Yep I'll blow them away
Ch)
You say you've been what you want sweet lady
I have got to know now, I have got to know now
You say you've been what you want,
Well I gotta know
SOLO
OUTRO
Free the people
Be the people
