I Want It All

La la la la la la
Lala lala lalalalala
It’s a joyful life, it’s a joyful noise
Making these records for the girls and boys
It’s a couple of feelings on some simple string
It’s a way to make a living!
You gotta turning gotta keep the flame burning
Gotta keep the faith
Bring back human to the human race
Let the power, give 'em something to eat
Let’s tear down religion
'Cause I want it all, I want
Don’t want to live my life in the in-between
Break on through and give them something to feel
Let them dance out the streets!
La la…
And if the talking heads could speak a little truth
Give us something that we can sink our teeth into
Drop a dollar on a song, maybe read a couple books
Get off of your goddammed phone!
'Cause there’s so much beauty in the people today
You’re never gonna see it if you’re in the way
And if the singer had something decent to say
Well, we might just make it through!
Cause I want it all, I want
Don’t want to live my life in the in-between
Break on through and give them something to feel
Get them dancing in the streets!
All you that make the rules
Yeah we won’t be trumped, don’t you play us the fools
We’ll break the system that you turned into
We’ll take it back again
Got a couple of kids and a beautiful wife
A few guitars, it’s a pretty good life
Out into the world of love and strife
I’ll smile and be happy
