Think About It, Think, Think About It
[verse]
Amaj7
Children on the streets using guns and knives
Taking drugs and each others lives
Bm7
Killing each other using knives and forks
Bm
And calling each other names like dork
Amaj7
Theres people on the street getting diseases from monkeys
Yeah thats what I said, their getting diseases from monkeys
Bm7
Whys this happening, please, whose been touching these monkeys
Leave these poor sick monkeys alone
Bm
There sick, theyve got problems enough as it is
Amaj7
A man is lying on the street, some punk has chopped off his head
Bm7
And Im the only one who stops to see if hes dead, aaoohhh
Bm
Turns out hes dead
[chorus]
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
Thats why Im singing, Aaaaoooh what is wrong with the world today?
Bm7
Whats wrong with the world today, *mumbles* never said nothings wrong with it
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
Uooo, what is wrong with the world today?
Bm7
Think about it, think about it, think, think about it
[verse chords the same]
Good cops get framed and put into a can
And all the money that were making is going to the maaan
What man, whose the man, whens a man a man, whys it so hard to be a man
Am I a man? Yes, technically, yes
Oohh, come on, sont zootka theyre turning kids into slaves
Theyre turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers
But whats the real cost, cause the sneakers dont seem that much cheaper
Why are we still paying so much for sneakers when you got little kid slaves making them
What are your overheads?
Well, at the end of your life, you are lucky if you die
Sometimes I wonder why I would even try
Why try
I saw a man lying on the street half dead
He had knives and forks sticking out of his leg
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
He said, Ahh ahh ahh ahhhhhhhhwww
Bm7
Can somebody get the knife and fork out of my leg, please
Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7
Ooh, could somebody please remove these cutleries from my knees
Bm7
Yeah yeeeahhh
Amaj7
This is where we break it down
This is where we break it down
Bm7
Well break it down
What are they doing, their breaking it down
What do they do, and now their keeping it funky
Just having a funky jam and then were going to drop the beat
And then well bring it back *wails* Up
Wah wah wah waaah!
Amaj7 - Amaj7- Bm7 - Bm (play through end)
*Both go to town with the wailing*
Then well take it low
Fading out, fading out
Were talking about the issues, but were keeping it funky
Were fading out, were just fading out
Why they getting quiet, theyre just fading out
*monkey noises*
Stop touching that monkey
