This World Today Is a Mess

歌詞

What you do, what you say Has a lot to do in how you live today What you want, and what you make, Everybody knows it's only what you take What you see, and what you hear, When it comes around again it's not too clear You say yes, they say no, Everybody's talking everywhere you go You try to give another man a helping hand He will take your kindness for a weaker stand Never do to others what they do to you Try to find another way to make it through What I say is what I know, Try to get a favour going from door to door You stop and pray it's out of style, You a step ahead it takes a hundred miles What I say is what I know Try to get a favour going from door to door You stop and pray, you know that's out of style, Get a step ahead it takes a hundred miles You try to give another man a helping hand He will take your kindness for a weaker stand Never do to others what they do to you You'd better do it to them before they do it to you! What you do, and what you say Has a lot to do in how you live today What you want, what you make, Everybody knows it's only what you take And now what you see, and what you hear, When it comes around again it's not gonna be the same thing Because you're gonna say yes, and they're gonna say no And everybody's gonna talk, and talk, And bla bla everywhere you go And you know something? You try to give another man a helping hand You know what he's gonna do? He's gonna take your kindness for a weaker stand You try to do for others what you'd like them to do to you Ah! ah! forget it! It's gonna be some other kind thing! So you try to give another man, ah! listen, a helping hand? He will take your kindness for a weaker stand! Never do to others what they do to you
