Hey, somebody told me, to live is a lie
But I know, better got a woman inside
Tells me things that I should understand
'Cause I know better, even though I'm a man
So many things go in so many ways
Every single moment like a judgment day
Thank goodness, things are gettin' better for sure
I got the message, love is the cure, ooh yeah
Now I ain't stupid but I can't understand
Why so many things are gettin' so out of hand?
Think we should wonder, what the problem could be?
All the world over sing, "I wanna be free"
Don't really matter what you think of me now
'Cause I got the message, the message is wow
Got everything, got nothing to hide
I got, l, what? I got a woman inside, ooh yeah
I said, "Hey men, quit knocking your children 'round"
I say, "Hey, hey men, quit mowin' your women down"
'Cause it's all in the way that you look at who you are
So hey, hey men, quit looking so far, ooh yeah
Land of the free is a poor alibi
I learned my lesson when I learned how to fly
Sound's so silly but I think it's the truth
I got the message, the message is you
Somebody told me that we live in a dream
Sound's like something that you hear on T.V.
Got everything, even though I'm a guy
Feels so good, I got a woman inside, ooh yeah
I said, "Hey men, quit pushin' your women 'round"
I say, "Hey, hey men, quit knockin' your children down"
'Cause it's all in the things that you do with what you are
So, hey, hey men, whatcha been doing so far?
I said, "Hey men, quit knocking your children 'round"
I say, "Hey, hey men, quit mowin' your women down?
'Cause it's all in the way that you look at who you are
So hey, hey men, quit looking so far
We got more rock and roll than we ever deserved
Some of us were fishes, some of us were worms
