This World Today Is A Mess Songtext
von Donna Hightower

What you do, what you say
Has a lot to do in how you live today
What you want, and what you make
Everybody knows it′s only what you take
What you see, and what you hear
When it comes around again, it's not too clear
You say yes, they say no
Everybody′s talking everywhere you go

You try to give another man a helping hand
He will take your kindness for a weaker stand
Never do to others what they do to you
Try to find another way to make it through


What I say is what I know
Try to get a favour going from door to door
You stop and pray, it's out of style
You get a step ahead, it takes a hundred miles an hour
What I say is what I know
Try to get a favour going from door to door
You stop and pray, you know that's out of style
Get a step ahead, it takes a hundred miles

Now you try to give another man a helping hand
He will take your kindness for a weaker stand
Never do to others what they do to you
You′d better do it to them before they do it to you

What you do, and what you say
Has a lot to do in how you live today
What you want, and what you make
Everybody knows it′s only what you take
And now what you see, and what you hear
When it comes around again, it's not gonna be the same thing
Because you′re gonna say yes, and they're gonna say no
And everybody′s gonna start talking, and talking
And bla-bla everywhere you go
And you know something?

You try to give another man a helping hand
You know what he's gonna do?
He′s gonna take your kindness for a weaker stand
You try to do for others what you'd like them to do to you
Haha, forget it! It's gonna be some other kind of thing


So you try to give another man, listen, a helping hand?
He will take your kindness for a weaker stand!
Never do to others what they do to you
I′ll try to do the best I can, believe it, I′ll suck it to you
You better try to give another man ah, another kind of helping hand
Try to do the best you can for every man
