Lyrics:

3. Ball Of Confusion
People movin' out, people movin' in – why
Because of the colour of their skin
Run, run, run but you sure can't hide
An 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 talking about love thy brother
Is the preacher
And it seems nobody's interested in learnin'
But the teacher
Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration
Aggraviation, humiliation, obligation to my nation
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – it's just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – hey, hey
The sale of pills is at an all time high
Young fools walkin' round with their heads in the sky
Cities aflame in the summertime – and oh
And the beat goes on
Evolution, revolution, gun control, the sound of soul
Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growin up to soon
Politicians say more taxes solve everything
(And the band plays one)
So round and round and round we go
Where the world's headed nobody knows
Aaah, great googa nooga
Can't you hear me talkin' to you just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – it's just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – hey, hey
Fear is the air, tension everywhere
Unemployming rising fast
The Beatles new record's a gas
And the only save place to live
Is on an Indian reservation
Eve of destruction, tax of deduction
City inspectors, bill collectors
Sidewalk in demand, population out of hand
Suicide, too many bills, guess who's moving to the hills
People all over the world
Shout 'an end to war'
(And the band playes on)
Aaah, great googa nooga
Can't you hear me talkin' to you just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – it's just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – hey, hey
Let me hear ya, let me hear ya
Let me hear ya, let me hear ya – it's a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – it's just a
Ball of confusion – oh yeah
That's what the world is today – hey, hey
