People moving in

Why?

Because of the color of their skin

Run, Run, Run but you sure can't hide

A tooth for a tooth

Humiliation

Ball of confusion, ball of confusion

That's what your world is today

Ball of confusion, ball of confusion

That's what your world is today



Is like an all time high

City's aflame in the summer time, and

Ball of confusion, ball of confusion

That's what your world is today

Ball of confusion, ball of confusion

That's what your world is today

Domination

Demonstration

Aggrivation

Humiliation

Obligation to the nation



Ball of confusion, ball of confusion

That's what your world is today



That's what your world is today

Ball of confusion, ball of confusion
