Ian Hunter - Somethin's Goin' On Lyrics

The spirit of war is all around us
'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers
'Cause everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Nuclear missiles - cover to cover
Everybody knows somethin's goin' on
The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers
'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Well I say
Roll up to the party - welcome to the show
We'll make you live in fear - then we'll make you disappear
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
What you got - what you got
Everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Most people got nothin' - a few got the lot
'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on
Well I say
Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row
Just do what we say - then we'll blow you all away
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
What about hunger... are they just another number?
We're all an endangered species
'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on
Well I say
Welcome to Thanksgiving - what we reap is what we sow
We'll watch you die in vain from the safety of our plane
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows

The spirit of war is all around us
'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers
'Cause everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Nuclear missiles - cover to cover
Everybody knows somethin's goin' on
The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers
'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Well I say
Roll up to the party - welcome to the show
We'll make you live in fear - then we'll make you disappear
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
What you got - what you got
Everybody knows somethin's goin' on
Most people got nothin' - a few got the lot
'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on
Well I say
Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row
Just do what we say - then we'll blow you all away
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
What about hunger... are they just another number?
We're all an endangered species
'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on
Well I say
Welcome to Thanksgiving - what we reap is what we sow
We'll watch you die in vain from the safety of our plane
Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
