Ball of Confusion

People moving out

People moving in

Why?

Because of the color of their skin

Run, Run, Run but you sure can't hide

An eye for an eye

A tooth for a tooth

Vote for me, I'll set you free

Rap on brother, rap on

Well the only person talking about love

Thy brother is a preacher

See, No body is interested in learning

But the teacher

Segregation

Domination

Demonstration

Integration

Aggrivation

Humiliation

Obligation to the nation

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion

That's what your world today

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion

That's what your world today

Is like an all time high

City's aflame in the summer time, and

Oh, The beat goes on

Evolution, Revolution, Evolution....

Gun Control, the sound of soul

Politicians, can you fucking believe them?

And the band played on

And the band played on

Round and around and around we go

Where ever we're standing no body knows

Take a look around

Can't you hear me talking to you?

Just a

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion

That's what your world today

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion

That's what your world today

See it in the air

Tension everywhere

Unemployment rising fast

Killers gangs watch your ass

Gun control, the sound of soul

Segregation

Domination

Demonstration

Integration

Aggrivation

Humiliation

Obligation to the nation

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion

That's what your world today

That's what your world today

Ball of Confusion, Ball of Confusion.... repeat
