| Boat’s on the water, wings in the sky
|
| Feet on the ground, my oh my
|
| Big storm risin' out of the east
|
| You can cage that tiger but you can’t tame the beast
|
| World be revvin' up and I be winding down
|
| Yes I will
|
| Because the world keep revvin' up and I be windin' down
|
| (Yeah) Oh yeah (Then what happen?)
|
| We got blood in the classroom, all in the streets
|
| Blood on the hands of the bloody Wall Street (I hear ya)
|
| Sirens screaming all through the night
|
| Chasing that fire, done got too big to fight
|
| World be revvin' up, I be windin' down
|
| (I hear ya, baby) Oh yeah
|
| Well, the world be revvin' up and I be windin' down
|
| Yes I am
|
| Put a man on the moon but we can’t feed the children
|
| Can’t find work to save my soul
|
| Transplant a heart but we can’t find a cure
|
| Makin' test tube babies then we send 'em off to war
|
| World be revvin' up and I been windin' down
|
| (Yeah) Oh yeah (c'mon)
|
| World be revvin' up and I be windin' down
|
| (I hear ya) Yes I am
|
| Oh, world be revvin' up, I be windin' down
|
| (Come on, Sammy)
|
| Oh yes I am windin' down
|
| (I hear ya, son) Windin' down |
