Ray Manzarek - Choose Up and Choose Off lyrics
[Ray Manzarek - Choose Up and Choose Off lyrics]
Which side is your side?
North side, South side, you better choose up
Black folks, white folks
Which folks are your folks
First, second, third world
You better choose up
‘Cause it’s time to be counted
Time to make your choice
Speak your mind, raise your voice
Jesus or Buddah, Moses or Mohammed
Who’s your messiah? It’s time to stand up
Archtype or ego ID and super ego
Who’s your analyst? You better choose up
Who’s sane or insane? Which
Game is your game? Middle class, aristocrat
You better choose up
The shape of the future is what we’re after
We’re all watching you so
You better choose up
‘Cause it’s time to be counted
Time to make your choice
Speak your mind, raise your voice
Dionysus or Apollo, good or evil
Which one will you follow?
Pray for your side to win
The battle of tomorrow
But ooo cha cha, what if there’s no tomorrow?
Why am I judging things? Isn’t
It all the same?
I see a white boy, black girl, brown boy
White girl
Yellow girl, white boy, gonna mix it all up
The golden race will be the new people
If you move your vision just one step up
The key to the future is beyond good and evil
Choosing up sides, I’ve had enough
It makes no difference which side wins
‘Cause it starts, stops, begins again
Well, there’s your way, my way
Really only one way
It’s the sun way, fun way, let’s go home
