Calm the Funk Down / We All Want Control

Don't twist the words that are in my mouth
I just think there are things that you can't do somehow
It's not personal, you should have figured it out
Sure, soon you'll be a city girl but you're staying put for now
We all want control, but where we go next nobody knows
We all want control, but where we go next nobody knows

So calm the funk down, mama, just let it go to sleep
Calm the funk down mama, don't read in too deep
I know you wanna be the master of your own destiny
You're being serious, if you don't take the leap

Don't you hear what I'm saying, I'm not a fatalist
I won't waste my energy, get out or get the gist
A lot of it is down to luck, I'm sorry to tell you this
I'd give you my secrets, mind the cure is hit or miss
We all want control, but where we go next nobody knows
We all want control, but where we go next nobody knows

So calm the funk down, mama, just let it go to sleep
Calm the funk down mama, don't read in too deep
I know you wanna be the master of your own destiny
You're being serious, if you don't take the leap

So calm the funk down, mama, just let it go to sleep
Calm the funk down mama, don't read in too deep
I know you wanna be the master of your own destiny
You're being serious, if you don't take the leap
