The Temptations

Power

Power, boom boom

Power, boom boom boom

Power, boom boom

Power, boom boom boom

Power, boom boom boom

Power boom boom

Power boom boom boom

Power boom boom

Power boom boom boom

Power

My hands are clean

My heart is so pure

The world is sick

I am the cure

I don't want no money, gold or gifts

Give me your minds and souls to lift

Put you faith and trust in me

I'll move your mountains

Part your sea

All you poor all you needy

All you're doin' is givin' to the greedy

All you poor all you needy

All you're doin' is givin' to the greedy

Get off your knees, believe in me

I'll set you free

All I need's a little more power

Power, power, power, power, power,

Power, power, power, power.

I have for you a master plan

To lead you to the Promised Land

I give you peace, I give you pride

I save you from mass suicide

I'm your hope, your one salvation

I'm your one man United Nation

All you poor all you needy

All you're doin' is givin' to the greedy

All you poor all you needy

All you're doin' is givin' to the greedy

Tell me your sins, I'll be your friend

I won't do you in.

All I need's a little more power

Power, power, power, power, power,

Power, power, power, power.

I'll make you all the master race

Just put me in my godly place

We'll march the world down in defeat

Take the fields of oil and the lands of wheat

Power, I need it, more, I got to have it

One thing I must make perfectly clear

Nuclear weapons, all men fear

Their hands sweat, their fingers itch

I'm the only one you can trust with the switch

Give it to me, more power

More, give it to me

More, give it to me
