The Adventures Of Women And Men Without Hate In The 21st Century

Hey!

Somebody told me to live is a lie
But I know better got a woman inside
Tells me things that I should understand
'Cause I know better even though I'm a man
So many things go in so many ways
Every single moment like a judgement day
Thank goodness things are gettin better for sure
I got the message
Love is the cure
Uh Huh
Oooh Yeah

Now I ain't stupid but I can't understand
Why so many things are gettin so out of hand
Think we should wonder what the problem could be?
All the world over sing "I wanna be free"
Don't really matter what you think of me now
'Cause I got the message
The message is wow
Got everything, got nothing to hide

I got.. What?
I got a woman inside
Uh Huh
Oooh Yeah

I said, hey men.
Quit knocking your children 'round
I say, hey-hey men.
Quit mowin your women down
'Cause it's all in the way
That you look at who you are
So hey hey men
Quit looking so far
Oooh Yeah

Land of the free is a poor alibi
I learned my lesson when I learned how to fly
Sounds so silly but I think its the truth
I got the message
The message is you
Somebody told me that we live in a dream
Sounds like something that you hear on T.V.
Got everything even though I'm a guy
Feels so good
I got a woman inside
Uh Huh
Oooh Yeah

I said, hey men
Quit pushin your women 'round
I say, hey -Hey men
Quit knockin' your children down
'Cause it's all in the things
That you do with what you are
So, hey Hey men
Whatcha been doing so far?

Playing guitar!

I said, hey men.
Quit knocking your children 'round
I say, hey-hey men.
Quit mowin your women down
'Cause it's all in the way
That you look at who you are
So hey hey men
Quit looking so far

Epilogue:
We got more rock and roll than we ever deserved
Some of us were fishes, some of us were worms.

We got more rock and roll than we ever deserved
Some of us were fishes, some of us were worms.

Take it away [??ermways??]

Talk about the world
I see it everyday
Talk about your heart
And things we have to say
I can here the whales
Whisper in the trees
I can hear their hearts
Calling out to - me

I can hear the waves
Breaking through your heart
I can hear your voice
Calling from the start
I can feel the wheels
Turning up ahead
I can see your voice
Telling me what's there

And the river's not too wide heavy dreaming on the other side
In the summer we'll collide As lovers

Talk without words
We do it all the time
Talking with your heart
Melting into mine
Talk about the boys
When you talk about the girls
I can hear their voice
Ripping 'round the world
And the river's not too wide heavy dreaming on the other side
In the summer we'll be fine like two lovers with a pair of eyes
In the summer we'll collide As lovers

Prologue:

Knew you were only fooling when you turned around and said goodbye
Please call this over I'll just roll up in a ball and cry
The winter moon is often viewed in the eye of you

Saw a man walking on the moon on a black and white T.V.
I saw 4 lads from Liverpool in my babysitter's magazine
I saw rain shine than sun fall
Saw nobody home
Saw candles burning in the wind
I saw Lou Reed in Rome

I saw the land beyond my wildest dreams behind a willow tree
Saw naked ladies on the wall of a bathroom in a factory
Saw apples lying on the ground
Saw right through the snow
I saw women dying in an opera
Saw Lou Reed in Rome

Then I saw your face and thought how life's so good to me
We were meant to meet each other in the middle of a mystery

I saw an old man sleeping in the cold by a purple limousine
I saw the biggest canyon in the world with an angel in the stream
Saw a weary eyed 14 year old dancing all alone
I saw a needle going through a heart
Saw Lou Reed In Rome

Then I saw your face and thought how life's so good to me
And we were meant to meet each other in the middle of a mystery
Then I heard you smile and thought how wonderful indeed
Were meant to meet each other You and Me
You and Me

Then I saw your face and thought how life's so good to me
And we were meant to meet each other in the middle of a mystery
Then I heard you smile and thought how wonderful indeed
Were meant to meet each other You and Me
You and Me

You and Me
You and Me
You and Me
You and Me

How high is the light above
Is everybody thinking 'bout a thing called love
My, my there's a light ahead
Is everybody waiting 'till the thing turns red
Hey, hey we've a while to go
Is everybody ready 'cause the thing must roll
My life ain't no ball and chain
it's a summer of forgiveness
And the fall of pain
and the money's O.K.
and the money's O.K.

Hey, hey you and I agree
They burned our rivers
And they burned our trees
My, my we've a while to go
Is everybody willing 'cause the thing must roll
My life ain't no ball and chain
it's a summer for existence and the fall again
My life ain't no given up
It's a never ending story 'bout a thing called love
and the money's O.K.
and the money's O.K.

Did you ever wonder in your life, What then?
Were you ever hit by lightning twice or ten times thinking
All we do is live and die

If all we do is life and die
Then tell me about the birds that fly
Tell me about the summer rain
And evenings whispering your name
If all we did is die and live
Will springtime be there to forgive
Son of laughter, son of pain
Somewhere over bows of rain

I loved you more - more than anything
I loved you more - than the driving rain
I loved you more - more than words can say

If all we did is life and die
Then tell me about the birds up high
Tell me about the summer rain
And evenings whispering your secret name
If all we did is die and live
Will springtime be there to forgive
Son of laughter, son of pain
Somewhere over bows of rain

I loved you more - more than anything
I loved you more - than the driving rain
I loved you more - more than words can say

Did you ever wonder in your life, What then?
Were you ever hit by lightning twice or ten times thinking
All we do is live and die

More 4/4s in the neighborhood
Banging on the same guitar
Dreaming of living in Hollywood
Puffing on a big cigar
Prima ballerina in a magazine
Call her on the telephone
Tell her that you're sending up a limousine
She say: I don't know...
I know where to go!

Now 4/4s in a different mood
Thinks he's gonna change the world
Making all the money that some others should
Guess it's 'cause we don't deserve
Meet a lot of people in a magazine
Tell you where not to go
Tell you that I'm living out a fantasy
You say: You don't know
They play me on the radio

You gotta walk before you crawl
Remember everybody's selling something
You gotta talk before you know
Remember everybody's selling something
There's like a racket on the ball
Remember everybody wants attention
You gotta rock before you roll
Remember everybody's selling something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!

Now 4/4s into mother earth
Hurry up and wait T.V.
Funny how your life'll take a different turn
And how you get to dance for free
See a lot of freedom in your magazine?
Does it tell you what you want to know?
Tell you once and maybe twice and maybe three times
That's all right!
We're coming out in stereo!!!

You gotta walk before you crawl
remember everybody's selling something
You gotta talk before you know
remember everybody's selling something
There's like a racket on the ball
Remember everybody wants attention
You gotta rock before you roll
Remember everybody's selling something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!

Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!
