People Lyrics - Singles - Nutty Boys

(Thompson/Foreman) 

[Backgound vocals throughout the song: "People !"] 

People, it's been a long time coming 

Many years spent hop skipping and a-jumping 

We cracked the golden egg and cooked our goose 

There's no excuse, accept my truce 

There's a tremor in the air of all hell breaking loose 

And people, you like it or not, you'll go unheard 

Like the unknown soldier who didn't say a word 

Rounded up like the blood beaten rest of the herd 

At the crossroads of life in itself seems absurd 

But I'll hopscotch, cartwheel across, pointing the finger of fate 

Oh, I'm in the mood to create 

People people 

People, it's been a short term marriage 

The overnight revolution caused so much damage 

Try to understand me as I'm not here too long 

And do carry on do carry on do carry on do carry on 

Oh oh 

People people 

People people
