People moving out,

People moving in.

why, because of the color of their skin

run, run, run but you sho' 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



The only person talking about love thy brother is the preacher

and it seems

nobody's interested in learning

but the teacher



segregation, determination, demonstration, intergration,

Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation



Ball of confusion, oh yeah

That's what the world is today, hey



The sale of pills are at an all time high

young folks walking round with their heads in the sky

the cities ablaze in the summertime, and oh

the beat goes on



evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul

shooting rockets to the moon

kids growing up too soon

politicians say more taxes, will solve everything

and 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, oh yeah

that's what the world is today, 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

and 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



Oh, Great Googamooga, can't you hear me talking to you

just a ball of confusion,
