Future Shock Lyrics


Future shock
Ooh, hooHey, little sister
Where's your brother
See your mother
Standing on the soup lineGod bless your father
Ain't got the strength
To be botheredThe almighty world
Hear me now
Whisper on
To weigh him downWe got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shockFuture shock, future shockAll worldly figures
Playing on niggers
Oh, see them passing
See how they're dancing

To the superflyOh, ain't it wrong
When you don't know
Where we come fromDancing in our youth
Dying at the truth
It ain't over
(Over, over, ain't over)We got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shockFuture shock, future shockThe price of the beat
Higher than the dope in the street
Is it any wonder
For those with nothing to eatWe got to stop all men
From messing up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shockFuture shock, future shock

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Curtis Mayfield (June 3, 1942 – December 26, 1999) was an American soul, funk and rhythm and blues, singer-songwriter and guitarist from Chicago, Illinois. Mayfield is probably best known for his anthemic music with The Impressions and for the soundtrack to the blaxploitation film Superfly. Perhaps because he didn't cross over to the pop audience as heavily as Motown's stars, it may be that the scope of Curtis Mayfield's talents and contributions have yet to be fully recognized. Judged merely by his records alone, the man's legacy is enormous.
