Thought generally refers to any mental or intellectual activity involving an individual's subjective consciousness. It can refer either to the act of thinking or the resulting ideas or arrangements of ideas. Similar concepts include cognition, sentience, consciousness, and imagination. Because thought underlies almost all human actions and interactions, understanding its physical and metaphysical origins, processes, and effects has been a longstanding goal of many academic disciplines including, among others, biology, philosophy, psychology, and sociology.
Thinking allows beings to make sense of or model the world in different ways, and to represent or interpret it in ways that are significant to them, or which accord with their needs, attachments, objectives, plans, commitments, ends and desires.
The word comes from Old English þoht, or geþoht, from stem of þencan "to conceive of in the mind, consider".
In common language, the word to think covers numerous and diverse psychological activities. It often refers merely to the act of being conscious of something, especially if that thing is outside the immediate environment ("It made me think of my grandmother"). It is sometimes a synonym for "tending to believe," especially with less than full confidence ("I think that it will rain, but I am not sure"). At other times it denotes the degree of attentiveness ("I did it without thinking"). Many other mental activities—many of which may shade into each other—can be covered by the word, such as interpreting, evaluating, imagining, planning, and remembering.

Oh, you better think
All you men with aching greed
You dont realise that the people need
The children need a helping hand
Life means nothing in your houses tall
You've never had your back's against the wall
Your backs against the wall
With a gun at your head
I see no fun in laughing all the time
All those ruby smiles and all those funny lines
They don't mean a thing to me
cause I don't have the time for that
Live your life in luxury
You don't know what its like out on the streets
Without a friend to help you through the night
First its there and then its gone
Then you realise it's not much fun, no it's not much fun
When you practice to deceive
I see no fun in laughing all the time
All those ruby smiles and all those funny lines
They don't mean a thing to me, cause I don't have the time
They don't mean a thing to me, cause I don't have the time
For that
I said we've got no time for that, no, no, not anything
Well I've seen so many things
Knights of days and fallen kings
Times when everyone lies to you all the time
Time in our hands, it's going slow
Before to long, it's gonna blow
It's all going to blow up in your face
You've got fancy names for your evil men
They're going to take you in their world of sin, world of sin
Where you'll be all alone
You'll be all alone
Well I can see no fun in laughing all the time
All those ruby smiles and all those funny lines
They don't mean a thing to me, cause I don't have the time
They don't mean a thing to me, cause I just don't have the time
For that
No time for that, no time for that, no time for that
No time for that.
Wait wait wait
You never wanna wait
Wait wait wait
Slow down
Stop and think
Think think think
You never wanna think
Cause everything
Could it be a dream
Another bad dream
So I drink, drink, drink
I’m putting down the drink
Cause I can’t feel a thing
Cause every time you say goodbye
I’ve seen that look a thousand times
There’s no more room left inside
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
Fear fear fear
Just don’t be afraid
Afraid afraid afraid
Watch the tube and waste
Waste waste away the days
Flush it down the drain
Cause every time you say goodbye
I’ve seen that look a thousand times
There’s no more room left inside
And every time you say good night
I love to watch you close your eyes
There’s no more pain left inside
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
Hate hate hate
You always gotta hate
Cause every time you say goodbye
I’ve seen that look a thousand times
There’s no more room left inside
And every time you say good night
I love to watch you close your eyes
There’s no more pain left inside
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
All you men with aching greed
You dont realise that the people need
The children need a helping hand
Life means nothing in your houses tall
You've never had your back's against the wall
Your backs against the wall
With a gun at your head
I see no fun in laughing all the time

They don't mean a thing to me, cause I don't have the time
For that
I said we've got no time for that, no, no, not anything
Well I've seen so many things
Knights of days and fallen kings

They don't mean a thing to me, cause I don't have the time
They don't mean a thing to me, cause I just don't have the time
For that
No time for that, no time for that, no time for that
Imagine if I said I sometimes need you
I need you to this day
Imagine if I said I sometimes hear you call my name
Imagine if I said I still could love you
Imagine what you'd say
Imagine if I said I sometimes still can see your face
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
There's something in the air that feels like winter
The kind we used to know
Yesterday can seem like such a long long time ago
Who could ever count the miles between us
But now I know it's true
Imagine if I said that all my dreams are dreams of you
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
Think about images we've drawn
Think about all those empty songs
Whenever you're sure that I won't dare
Think about me and I'll be gone
It took me a long long time to learn
That love is a thing you have to earn
I finally realized it's true
That I just can't make it without you
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
Think about images we've drawn
Think about all those empty songs
Whenever you're sure that I won't dare
Think about the sacrifices that I made for you
Think about the hard times that you put me through
Think about the good things that I done for you
Think about the bad things that I tried not to do
Come on baby
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong things
And baby before you leave me you'll realise
That I'm the one who loves you
How much of the happiness can you really claim
How many tears have I shed, am I not to blame
Though I can't remember what went wrong
I tried so hard to please you, least that's what I thought
Come on baby
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong things
And baby before you leave me you'll realise
That I'm the one who loves you
Come on baby

Trying to make other people lose their minds, be careful you don't lose yours

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (think, think), let your mind go, let yourself be free
You need me (need me) and I need you (don't you know)

(Think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about it)
(Think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about it)
You had better stop and think before you think
Think!
Hey, fellas
I'm talking to you, you and you too
Do you guys know who I'm talking to?
Those of you who go out and stay
Out all night and half the next day
And expect us to be home
When you get there
But let me tell you something
The sisters aren't going for that no more
'Cause we realize two things
That you aren't doing anything for us
We can do better by ourselves
So from now on, we gonna use
What we got to get what we want
So, you'd better think, think
Now's the time when we have [Incomprehensible]
That's the thing I never will forget
Now baby, I got a whole lot to give
And a whole lotta loving
That a woman could give, yeah
But before I give it up, I gotta think, think
Think what the future holds for me
Just go ahead and see
I don't need no heartache
I can't stand no misery
Let me think, think
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
All right, yeah
Don't say it's easy
Just plain living
Sometimes it's kinda tough
If it's not in your vision
Don't make no decision
Hey, yeah, all right
So, I'm laying the cards on the table
When it comes to taking care of me
I know I'm able
You may not call it true
But I won't do nothing that you won't do
Said I won't do nothing that you won't do
So think about the good things
Come on and think about the right things
You got to think about me too
Come on and think, think about you
Come on and think about the good things
Come on and think about the right things
And just before you fade out to
I will hold a place for you
Do you rememeber when we used to
Do you rememeber when you used to
Do you remember life
Well, as you're led out to the slaughter
You ought to
Think about your life you wouldn't give it up
Before you're led off to the slaughter
You ought to
And just as soon as you will find
That all of this became your life
Do you remember when we used to
Do you remember when you used to
Do you remember life
Before you're led off to the slaughter
You ought to
And just as soon as all of this so
All of this so pure
Do you ever stop
I don't even hear what you say
It's all about what you do
You think you're the mack
I'll tell you a fact
No-one gives a fuck about you
What it is
What is was
And what you always will be
Think
You think you're my friend
You ain't my friend
I hear you talking about respect and clout
You never get a bit
A front or a back
We're gonna smack
When you hear the news
What makes you think?
Do you make your own views,
Do you look for the link?
Does it really matter what you say?
Will it really matter at the end of the day?
You like to think we think
We like to think you think
Think we think
Think you think
We're gonna get older
Quicker some day
But does it have to shape
What you say?
What you think
Or what you do
Is it really ever
Gonna matter to you?
Will it really matter
At the end of the day?
What you think
Something's going on, change is taking place,
Children smiling in the streets have gone without a
trace.
This street used to be full, it used to make me smile,
And now it seems that everyone is walking single file
And many hang their heads in shame
That used to hold them high.
And those that used to say hello
Simply pass you by
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
I always said it could they never thought it could
The people look so pitiful I'm thinking that it should
and now it's almost here, now it's on its way
I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final
And nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light.
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
And many hang their heads in shame that used to hold
them high - Think for a
minute
And those that used to say hello simply pass you by -
stop for a minute
You better think(think) think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah think(think, think), let your mind go, let yourself be free
Let's go back, let's go back, let's go way on way back then
I didn't even know you, you couldn't have been to much more than ten

You had better stop and think before you think
Blanco nos dieron del noventa y cincorsario
de hidalgo en la T.V que mamadar paso
sin huarache y memo
no sellevandalismo no es lo mismo
si la vendemente de amarte a mearte
yo prefiero no mirartengo cosquillas
ya chingastepelaste y no pagaste
ojo al gato no es baratomas al negro dinero
Think 4 yourself piensa por ti mismo
Blanco te entierranas
verdes no las mosquitas que nos dan risa
de vez en cuandolor genitaloneando y puro ando
I could give up my friends I know
And in return you could give up yours
Before we think, what would we do later on?
What kind of life would we have
Just in case we both were wrong?
I give up my woman you give your man
But it don't make sense to take the chance
Before we think, what would we do later on?
What kind of life would we have
Just in case we both were wrong?
Well love is a gamble, we know that's true
Why gamble on me? Why should I on you?
Before we think, what would we do later on?
What kind of life would we have
We all walk the same ground
The same old mother earth
But we act like we would give everything
To see her dying with trembling nerves
Words without deeds are just an empty shell
With the sign of death and caustic smell of decay
Ask anyone they'll say "I know, I know, I know, I know, I know..."
Only to save prosperity
We lie even to ourselves
We should have known it better
When we hear the final tolling of the bells
What we are created for?
Does it matter anymore?
People are always looking for something
'cause they're fuckin' bored
They're fuckin' bored!!!
Won't you start to think
Before your brains will shrink
And won't you really try
Before you bound to die! Die!
Try to understand this whole world's in our hands
And won't you start to think
Only try to think in mine!
All right...
We all walk the same ground
The same old mother earth
But we act like we would give everything
To see her dying with trembling nerves
Words without deeds are just an empty shell
With the sign of death and caustic smell of decay
Ask anyone they'll say "I know, I know, I know, I know, I know..."
You better think (think)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah, think (think, think)
Think about it, go and let yourself be free
Let's go back, let's go back
Let's go way back, way back when
I didn't even know you
And you were too much more than a friend
I ain't no psychiatrist
I ain't no doctor with degree
But it don't take too much high IQ's
To see what you're doing to me
You better think (think)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah, think (think, think)
Think about it, go and let yourself be free
Oh freedom (freedom), freedom (freedom), freedom, freedom
Freedom (freedom), freedom (freedom), freedom, freedom

You betta take some time to think (what you doin to me)
You say you want me (but all you do is hurt me)
I just can't believe (that's my heart you're breaking)
That truth will set you free (think what you do to me)
You think everything you do is cool, is cool (some things are not cool with me)
Let me hip you to what I'm gonna do to you (maybe you should listen to)
I'll leave and then you see who's laughing at who (now you see the joke is on you)
Boy you can't think I'm gon go for that (can't go for that)
No not for that
You betta take some time to think (what you doin to me)
You say you want me (but all you do is hurt me)

You betta take some time to think (what you doin to me)
You say you want me (but all you do is hurt me)
I just can't believe (that's my heart you're breaking)
That truth will set you free (think what you do to me)
Look what you did to yourself

You say you nights ain't right
No one to hold you tight

I finally got the truth
Now the jokes on you
You betta take some time to think (what you doin to me)
You say you want me (but all you do is hurt me)

Think about it baby (think about it baby)
Why'd you hurt me baby (why'd you hurt me baby)
Said you love me baby (can't believe, can't believe)
Can't believe it baby
Heh - Yeah, I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking two more years of this,
I’m gonna chuck it in and move to an easier place,
You're thinking two dollars a litre doesn't really look
that far away,
And you're thinking as you look at your ring finger,
Hmm, was that really the right decision?
Hell yeah, yeah, I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking if I'd been given the chance to express
myself,
Develop my inner guru,
Then I could be that gorgeous, tanned, blonde 19 year
old,
Pouring sickly black holy water down my throat,
Right now, in digital widescreen perfection!
I know what you're thinking!
They don't want you thinking!
And I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking!
They don't want you thinking!
But I know what you're thinking!
(So think!)
Yeah, I know what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
Blah blah another newspaper headline,
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
Oh if I’d had a little more time,
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
If I could read I’d make sense of that sign.
Oh yeah, oh yeah, i know what you're thinkin',
You're thinking if he said yes and we said no,
And they went and did it anyway,
We must have no choice at all right?
Well you're wrong,
You gotta soup it up and walk tall, yeah,
You wanna get there?
It's just not working is it?
Well, we know what you're thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come and tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking,
You're thinking this looks just as bad here in the shop
as it did in the catalogue,
As you look in your wallet and realise you've been
ripped off and you like it,
I know what you're thinking; you're thinking oh no, not
me, not ever,
Oh yeah? I know what you're thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come to tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
You're thinking one more day of this,
And I'm gonna break,
Bust out and make a mistake I could regret for the rest
of my life!
Aaaaaaagh!
I don't know what I'm thinking!
I don't know what I'm thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come to tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking,
(Fight back, think that, fight back)
I know what you're thinking,
(Fight back, think that, fight back)
Yeah I know what you're thinking,
You're thinking you're a mouse click,
A drag and a piece of autotune away from being a pop
Am I winning the war?
Are you winning the fight?
Is this winning?
And when this is won is it the end or beginning? .
In centuries past we've justified our fears.
But now the decades pass like years.
As technology and science suffocate taboos art and religion often lose .
Do I think for myself?
Are they thinking for me?
Are you thinking?
Am I rocking the boat or is it rocking me?
Are we sinking?
Are you listening to me?
Am I hearing you right?
Are they hearing?
Is time going by or is it the past disappearing? .
For every time we try to fightthe final war there always seems to be one more
For every sanction the name of human rights another lost soul dies tonight
For every cure there is a brand new disease.
Mother nature's not so easily appeased.
All the steps we make to keep ourselves alive amount to nothing
when the hour of death arrives .
Tell me the truth and I will know the truth .
Lies are stained with death
Tell me the truth and let me catch my breath .
Do I get what I want?
Do you want what you get?
Is it taken?
Do I know what I dream?
If I die do I know I'll awaken?
Do I die for the cause?
Does the cause live through me?
Am I dying?
Could a cure give me life or could life be the cure?
Are you trying? .
Racing to find the answers
Running to beat the hands of time.
Pushing forward fighting back.
Where's the finish line?
I need to catch my breath
In centuries past we've justified our fears.
But now the decades pass like years, as technology
and science suffocate taboos
Art and religion often lose .
Racing to find the answers, running to beat the hands of time
Pushing forward fighting back where's the finish line?

I need to change your mind
(Think about it)
Loneliness
is the greatest fear of all
it leaves a void
nothing can refill
Don't you even once think of me?
I feel like I'm wasting my thoughts on you
but who's in the wrong –
you or I?
Is it my mind
that's going berserk?
and do I expect too much from you?
or is it the others who're just too cool?
Don't you even once think of me?
I feel like I'm wasting my thoughts on you
but who's in the wrong?
you or I?
I know, you don't owe me anything
you're free to come and go as you like
no, you don't owe me anything
but a small gesture would be kind
Why do angels cry in the night
Rent a breast monger for only a week
Flying from the city, iron horse going to hell
Bells are ringing and lights are shining bright
When young a pianist builder Kimberly as Iris
Exacting Moran as will diversified present
And her area senior as recital popular
As June 26 swells and gets orchard lake
You just want what you can’t have [x4]

Imagine if I said I sometimes need you
I need you to this day
Imagine if I said I sometimes hear you call my name
Imagine if I said I still could love you
Imagine what you'd say
Imagine if I said I sometimes still can see your face
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
There's something in the air that feels like winter
The kind we used to know
Yesterday can seem like such a long long time ago
Who could ever count the miles between us
But now I know it's true
Imagine if I said that all my dreams are dreams of you
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
Think about images we've drawn
Think about all those empty songs
Whenever you're sure that I won't dare
Think about me and I'll be gone
It took me a long long time to learn
That love is a thing you have to earn
I finally realized it's true
That I just can't make it without you
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and I'll be there
Think about images we've drawn
Think about all those empty songs
Whenever you're sure that I won't dare
Think about me and I'll be gone
From: Angela Lyon
Hey, fellas
I'm talking to you, you and you too
Do you guys know who I'm talking to
Those of you who go out and stay
Out all night and half the next day
And expect us to be home
When you get there
But let me tell you something
The sisters aren't going for that no more
Cause we realize two things
That you aren't doing anything for
We can do better by ourselves
So from now on, we gonna use
What we got to get what we want
So, you'd better think, think
Now's the time when we have ?
That's the thing I never will forget
Now baby, I got a whole lot to give
And a whole lotta loving
That a woman could give, yeah
But before I give it up, I gotta think
Think what the future holds for me
Just go ahead and see
I don't need no heartache
Can't stand no misery
Let me think, think
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
All right, yeah
Don't say it's easy
Just plain living
Sometimes it's kinda tough
If it's not in your vision
Don't make no decision
Hey, yeah, all right
So lay the cards on the table
When it comes to taking care of me
I know I'm able
You may not call it true
But I won't do nothing that you won't do
Said I won't do nothing that you won't do
So think about the good things
Come on and think about the right things
You got to think about me too
Come on and think, think about you
Come on and think about the good things
Come on and think about the right things

You had better stop and think before you think
Summer fields
seem brighter than before
money deals
keep ponding down my door
what am I to think
when you turn away from me once more
what am I to think
suffered once
but it's easier to hide
from the truth
never caring what I'd find
what am i to think
when you turn away from me once more
what am I to think shout at me
laugh at me
it's easier to conceive
these shouts at me and laughts at me
make you want to keep me
and I think
that I know
I've never felt this lonely
and I think
and I know
summer field are ablaze
what am I to think
whan you turn away from me once more
In my mind you're here now even though you're far away
And I don't know if I'll even try to make it through today
Regenerate, recirculate now until my blood runs dry
And I'll never know the things I'm missing until the day I die
Well I lied when I said "nothing" but I don't know what to do...
I just think about you
I think about you
I think about everything you did to me
But most of all I need to think about you
In my mind you're everything and I will never know
Why you needed me when I had nowhere else that I could go
Run around in circles now until my legs give out
But I look at the temptation but there's never any doubt
Well I lied when I said "nothing" but I don't know what to do...
I just think about you
I think about you
I think about everything you did to me
But most of all I need to think about you
I'm afraid I'm missing little pieces of my soul
But I never had a need for all the things I didn't know
Start from the beginning now and tell me everything
'Cause I'm lost without you, I don't think I'd do all this again
Now if I give up, my friends I know
And in return, you give up yours, before we think
What would we do later on
What kind of life would we have, just in case we both were wrong
I could give up my woman, you could give up your man
But it don't make sense to, take the chance, before we think
What would we do later on
What kind of life would we have, just in case we both were wrong
Horn Solo
They say love is a gamble, and we know that's true
So why gamble on me and and, why should I on you before we think
What would we do later on
Things get a little easier
Once you understand
Things get a little easier
Once you understand...
I'll be expecting you to
Get a haircut by Friday
(Forget it, Dad)
(That won't change anything)
Forget nothing, you'll do as I say
As long as you're living in my house
He knows I'm not feeling well
And yet he doesn't take one
Second out to help his mother
His only concern is for himself
(Come on, Ma)
(What do you want from me)
Don't argue with your mother
Just shut up and listen
But, Mom, all my
Friends will be there
(I said, no, you can't go)
But why
(I don't want you
In that neighborhood)
Why, what's wrong
With that neighborhood
(I don't like the kind of
People living there)
Why, what's wrong with them
(Nevermind)
(Some day, you'll thank me)
Are you sure no one kept you
Company tonight while
You were babysitting
(What's that supposed to mean)
Just curious
(Admit it, Mom, you don't trust me)
Where are you going now
(To my friend's house)
Don't you have things
To do in the house
Don't you have any homework
Why don't you sit down
And read a book (oh, ma)
Don't oh, Ma, me
You're wasting your life
Away with the foolish things
(What are you talking about
How about your bridge club
And your ladies groups
And your parties and
Your daytime programs
What about all that)
That's different
Ma, I'll be home at eleven
(You better be home at ten or
Don't bother to come home at all)
When I was your age
I was working twelve hours a day
Six days a week helping to pay
For the food and the rent
(I don't understand, what's
That got to do with me)
If you can't figure that out
For yourself, you're stupid
Hey, Dad
Did you see my new guitar
I joined a group
(Son, there's a little bit more
To life than joining a group
And playing the guitar)
Yeah, Dad, what is there to life
Mister Cook (yes)
You have a son named Robert
Robert Cook, age seventeen (yes)
I'm sorry, Mister Cook
You better come down
To the station house
You son is dead (dead, how)
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong things
Lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
Think of all the sacrifices I made for you
Think of all the hard times I've been true
Think of all the good things I've done for you
Think of all the bad things I've tried not to do
Come on sugar and think
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong
And lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
[Instrumental]
Come on sugar and think
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong
And lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
Think of all the happiness can I really claim
How many tears have you shed for which I am to blame
No I can't remember, I guess that's what is wrong
Tried so hard to please you, at least that's what I
thought
Come on sugar and think
Think about the good things
Think about the bad things
Think about the right things
Think about the wrong
And lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
Lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
Lady before you leave me realise
I'm the one who loved you
