Taint your world
Screaming at the sun I t have spilled a little moonshine on my head
Didn't have to run, but there was no one left behind 'cept for the dead
I didn't see it comin', but that rummy-stilted crackpot knew my game
Left my head a'hummin', like a ball peen hammer drives a nail to shame
I suggest you listen up to what I have to say
Witnessed many crooked things, I smell your DNA
Stab me, take me down, you know you'll never get your way
Taint your world
You're so far away from where you think you need to be
Taint your world
Cause you don't want to fuck with me
Didn't anybody get the cipher from the flying rat machine
Gnarly, little, scrunched up, tiny fingers, and its disposition mean
Anybody out of line will soon be on the list
My back's against the wall and yet I know I must resist
Time to tell the truth, I think somebody's gettin' pissed
Taint your world
You're not even close to where you think you need to be
Taint your world
You got another guess comin' if you think you're foolin' me
Taint your world
So far away from where you think you need to be
Taint your world
Where I belong just like an oyster and a pearl
Taint your world
You're not even close to where you think you need to be
Taint your world
Taint your world

It’s a long way to the top
Ridin` down the highway
Goin` to a show
Stop in all the by-ways
Playin` rock `n` roll
Gettin` robbed
Gettin` stoned
Gettin` beat up
Broken boned
Gettin` had
Gettin` took
I tell you folks
It`s harder than it looks
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
If you think it`s easy doin` one night stands
Try playin` in a rock roll band
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
Hotel, motel
Make you wanna cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin` old
Gettin` grey
Gettin` ripped off
Under-paid
Gettin` sold
Second hand
That`s how it goes
Playin` in a band
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out it`s rough and mean
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
Well, it`s a long way
It`s a long way, (they tell me)
It`s a long way, such a long way

Privilege
Isn't it strange that a gift could be an enemy?
Isn't it weird that a privilege could feel like a chore?
Maybe it's me but this line isn't going anywhere,
maybe if we looked hard enough, we could find a backdoor.
(Find yourself a backdoor.)
I see you in line, dragging your feet
you have my sympathy.
The day you were born, you were born free.
That is your privilege.
Isn't it strange that the man standing in front of me
doesn't have a clue why he's waiting, or what he's waiting for?
Maybe it's me, but I'm sick of wasting energy.
Maybe if I look in my heart I could find a backdoor.
(Find yourself a backdoor.)
I see you in line, dragging your feet
you have my sympathy.
The day you were born, you were born free.
That is your privilege.

Who’ll stop the rain
Long as I remember the rain been comin' down.
Clouds of myst'ry pourin' confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages, tryin' to find the sun;
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain.
... And I wonder, still I wonder, whooooOOooo'll stop theee raaaaAAAAIIIIIINNNNnnnnnnn ...
