For Gods sake, you got to give more power to the people
Theres some people up there hoggin everything
Tellin lies, givin alibis about the peoples money and things
And if they gonna throw it away, might as well give some to me
Yeah they seen and heard it, but never had misery
There are some people who are starvin to death
Never knew but only hate us [?], and they never had happiness
Oh, oh, oh, if you dont have enough to eat, how can you think of love
You dont have the time to care so its crime youre guilty of, oh yeah
For Gods sake, you got to give more power to the people
For Gods sake, why dont you give more power to the people
Cut this jive and see whos got the power to kill the most
When they run out of power, the worlds gonna be a ghost
They know were not satisfied, so we begin to holler
Makin us a promise and throwin a few more dollars
Theres no price for happiness, theres no price for love
Up goes the price of livin, and youre right back where you was
So whatever you got, just be glad you got it
Now were gonna get on up and get some more of it
