What's the point of wasting time When we ain't got it on our side I never thought it would come to this `Cause we were better off before But I'm not trying to save the world Now something has got to give A young man, shot down Working in a store in town All they did was take his shoes Happens all the time No one seems to mind Now it feels there's nothing left to do And it turns me inside out It's been weighing on my mind Yeah it turns me inside out If things don't get better Tomorrow will never come Money's all that maters now And if you got it you got power Now one stands in your way This world has got a lot to give If you're the right colored skin Now something has got to change Drifting, off track Our politicians smoking crack And they want us to have faith Say they've got a hold But they've no self control Please excuse me `cause I have to laugh Chorus And it turns me inside out It's been weighing on my mind Yeah it turns me inside out `Cause if things don't get better Then good times will never Come around And it'll turn you inside out
