[Grandmaster Flash, The Furious Five - It's a Shame Mt. Airy Groove lyrics]
Yo Flash! This time cut it mellow!
Hey teacher! (What)
Talk to me! (About what?)
Peace! (There is no peace)
Why? (Who wants to know?)
We do! ('Cause men love money)
Why? (Greed)
Why not share? (Hell no)
Why? (Why not?)
'Cause to share shows that
You care for everybody!
It's a shame that all
People won't stick together
Don't they know that deep inside
We need each other?
There are places in our world
Where kids are starving
Don't you know they should not starve
'cause they're the future!
(Are they really the future?) yeah
Well cut it up Flash
(It's a shame) The way they treat
Those people is wrong man, it's wrong
(It's a shame) The world won't get no better
(It's a shame) Everybody's
Goin through changes, huh!
(It's a shame, It's a dirty, dirty world)
Hey, preacher! (What?)
Talk to me! (About what?)
Hope! (There is no hope)
Why? (Who wants to know?)
We do! ('Cause men are greedy)
Why? (Money)
Why not share? (Hell no)
Why? (Why not?)
'Cause to share shows that
You care for everybody!
(It's a shame that men at war won't stop
The fighting) Won't they stop the fighting
Baby (Don't you know they should not fight
'cause they
Are dying) Lots of men are dying, baby!
(There are places in our world
Where bombs are dropping) Bombs
Are droppin all over
(Even though they know it's wrong
They'll never stop it)
Will they ever stop it? (Nooooo)
Hit it Flash
(It's a shame) May God bless
All of the children
(It's a shame) The world won't get no better
(It's a shame) and everybody's playing
The same old game (It's a shame) Uh!
(It's a dirty, dirty world)
Hey teacher! (What)
