Future Shock - Edited Version

We've got to stop all men
From messing the land
When what we understand
This is our last and only chance

Everybody, it's the Future Shock
Future Shock
Future Shock (Shock Shock)

Hey, little sister,
Where's your brother?
See your momma
Standing on the soup line

Our blessed father
Ain't got the strength to be bothered
The almighty world, hear me, girl,
Was bound to weigh him down

We've got to stop all men
From messing the land
When what we understand
This is our last and only chance

Everybody, it's the Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock
Future Shock (Shock Shock)
Future Shock
Future Shock

Our worldly figures,
They're playing for niggers
O, see them dancing,
See how they're dancing
To The Superfly

Wooo! Yeah, ain't it dumb
When they don't know where we're coming from?
Dancing in our youth
Crying out for truth
To get over, over, over

We've got to stop all men
From messing the land
When what we understand
This is our last and only chance

Everybody, it's the Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock

Hey, big sister,
Where's your mister?
Dress to the pole
Try to get whole
It's all right

What's going on?
You seem always alone
Couldn't raise the bail
Man, he's in jail
Get over

We've got to stop all men
From messing the land
When what we understand
This is our last and only chance

Everybody, it's the Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)

Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Future Shock
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)

Price of the feat
Higher than the dope in the street
Is it any wonder
For those with nothing to eat?

Son's got it made
But still seems so afraid, my friend
There's no love for his brother
No friends for another
Future Shock
Hurts me, going on
Future Shock
Everyone's alone
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Don't know the people
Future Shock
Future Shock
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)

Everyone's alone
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Don't know the people
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Afraid of the steeple
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Wooooo-oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo!
Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)

Future Shock (Shock Shock Shock)
Hurts me, going on, wooo-oooo!
Future Shock
Future Shock

Everyone's alone
Future Shock
Future Shock
Don't know the people
Future Shock
Afraiiiiiiid -- Afraid of the steeple
Future Shock
Future Shock
Wooooo!
Future Shock
Future Shock
Not a lotta thinkers
Future Shock
