Someone Like You Lyrics


Do you remember
The times of laughter?
Children playin', life was so sweet
Before our city forgot us
And let the druglord take our street
Pacify me politician
Pacify me with your lies
Blind to the people suffering
Deaf to the children's criesWell I know what to do
With someone like youPolice, they chased my brother
Policeman licensed to kill
Ohh, how I miss my brother
Good shoes are so hard to fill
Policeman, are you happy?
You snuffed the medical student out
Ohh, maybe he could have changed the world
I guess we'll never find outOhh, but I know what to do
With someone like you

Yea yea yeah
I know what to do
With someone like youIt's never too late
To change your ways
It's never too late
To change your waysOhh, too young
Gave her body
She was afraid of being alone
One baby having another
Ohh, sweet baby wants to be grown
But there's a, there's an angel on your shoulder
Always speaking to your soul
Listen and your heart will be glad
You'll never have to be aloneOhh, 'cause I know what to do
With someone like you
Yeah, I know what to do
With someone like youOhh, I know what to do
With someone like you
I know what to do

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Living Colour is a funk metal group formed in New York city in 1984. They signed to Epic Records in 1987 and released their first album, Vivid, in 1988.

Stylistically their music is a creative fusion influenced by guitar-based rock such as hardcore punk and heavy metal, and traditional African-American music such as jazz, funk, and hip-hop. They are linked to the funk metal/alternative metal movement of the late 1980s typified by bands such as Fishbone, Jane's Addiction, Primus, Faith No More, and 24-7 Spyz. They are best remembered for the hit Cult of Personality, which won a Grammy Award for best hard rock performance in 1989. They were also named Best New Artist at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards. The singer, Corey Glover, had a role in the movie 'Platoon', directed by Oliver Stone.

The first two albums bassist Muzz Skillings contributed to the music, before leaving in 1992 due to creative differences. They were inactive from 1995-2000, and since their return have operated as a regular touring unit, as well as releasing one new studio release, Collide0Scope, one compilation of b-sides & rarities, and one live album from their early performances at the now mythical CBGB's. All four have released solo albums and session work, Doug Wimbish and Will Calhoun also are in both Jungle Funk and Head>>Fake, Corey Glover is also doing musical theatre, Vernon Reid has several projects, and Wimbish also has returned to various projects related to his other longstanding collaborators Adrian Sherwood, Keith Leblanc, and Skip McDonald.

The band are set to release their new album, The Chair in the Doorway, on September 15th of this year on Megaforce.
