People moving out people moving in why because of the color of their skin
Run, run, run but you just can't hide
An eye for and eye a tooth for a tooth vote for me I'll set you free
Rap on brother rap on
The only person talkin' 'bout love thy brother is the preacher
See nobody interested in learning but the teacher
Segregation, temination, demonstration, integration, aggrivation, humiliation
Obligation to the nation
Ball of confusion that's what the world is today
Ball of confusion that's what the world is today
The saying is at an all time high cities aflame in the summertime and
The beat goes (evolution, revolution
Gun control the sound of soul politicians, can you fucking believe them
And the band played on, and the band played
Round and around and around we go wherever we're standing nobody knows
Here comes the brother can't you hear me talking to ya
It's a ball of confusion that's what your world is today
Ball of confusion that's what your world is today
Fear in the air tension everywhere Unemployment rising fast killer gangs watch your ass gun control the sound of soul
Segregation, termination, demonstration, integration, aggrivation, humiliation
Obligation to the nation
Ball of confusion that's what your world is today
Ball of confusion that's what your world is today
Ball of ocnfusion that's what your world is today
Ball of confusion that's what your world is today
That's what your world is today

Run, run, run, but you just can?t hide
An eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth
Vote for me and I?ll set you free
Rap on, brother, rap on
Well, the only person talking about
Loving thy brother is the preacher
And it seems nobody?s interested
In learning, but the teacher
Segregation, demonstration
Integration, determination
Aggravation, humiliation
Obligation to our nation
Ball of confusion
That?s what the world is today
Hey, hey
The sale of pills is at an all time high
Young folks walk with their heads in the sky
The cities aflame in the summertime
And, oh, the beat goes on
Evolution, revolution, gun control
The sound of soul, shooting rockets to the moon
Kids growing up too soon
Politicians say, "More taxes will solve everything"
The band played on
So, 'round and around and around we go
Where the world?s headed, nobody knows
Oh, Great Googamooga
Can?t you hear me talking to you
Just a ball of confusion
That?s what the world is today
Hey, hey
Fear in the air, tension everywhere
Unemployment rising fast
The Beatles new record?s a gas
And the only safe place to live
Is on an Indian reservation
The band played on
Eve of destruction, tax deduction
City inspectors, bill collectors, mod clothes in demand
Population out of hand, suicide, too many bills
Hippies moving to the hills
People all over the world are shouting, "End the war"
And the band played on
Great Googamooga
Can?t you hear me talking to you
Just a ball of confusion
That?s what the world is today
Yeah, yeah
Just a ball of confusion,

(Van Wijk)
Ooh, yeah, yeah.
Ooh, woh, woh.
It's all just a ball of confusion,
Think it out and take it for a ride.
So take my advice and don't you lose it
By not giving up before we tried,
Before we tried, before we tried.
I don't know about revolution,
I don't even know the reason why.
So let us start and give a contribution
By not giving up before we tried,
Before we tried, before we tried.
I need your love, you need mine,
I'm your lover, you're my slave.
Come on baby, get it done,
Coming closer, turn me on,
Turn me on.
It's all just a ball of confusion,
Think it out and take it for a ride.
So take my advice and don't you lose it
By not giving up before we tried,
Before we tried, before we tried.
I need your love, you need mine,
I'm your lover, you're my slave.
Come on baby, get it done,
Coming closer, turn me on,
Turn me on.
I am wrong and you are right,
Don't give up without a fight.
If you'll win, I'll let you in,
If you'll lose, I'll be confused.
Bring it back,
Yeah, bring it on home.
Bring it back,
Now bring it on home.
Yeah, bring it back,
Oh, bring it on home.
Yeah, bring it back,
Now bring it on home.
Ah, ah!
Ah, ah!
Ah, ah!
Ah, ah!
Ah, ah!
Ah, ah!

People movin' out
