The Human Race is
runnin’ over me I punch a clock at 9 and 5 Just tryin’ to make a livin’ A plastic face on satellite TV Says, "Life is filled with give and take" He’s takin’ and I’m givin So I dance (Hook) It’s my system of survival (SOS) I’m dancin’ System of survival (SOS) It’s a system of survival Future revival Greet the new arrival (Bridge) At times it’s the only way I’m gonna make it through this day (Chorus) Everybody get up Do your dance Keep survivin’ Everybody get up Do your dance Stay alive A city night I walk a street in fear While politicians brag about A paperwork solution Another life I shed another tear I’m waiting for somebody new To lead the revolution So I dance (Hook) It’s my system of survival… (Repeat Hook and Chorus) (SOS) Send it out Send it out, send it out, send it out… © 1987 Maurice White Music (ASCAP) |
