TELL ME WHY Lyrics

And if books and newspapers and the radio are efficiently controlled
The people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to
Government censorship is one form of control
Tell me why all the rivers run dry
Tell me why the little baby born high
Tell me why his mom addicted to the latest pharmaceutical style
As stock markets reach the sky
Tell me why all the people don’t see
Tell me is there something wrong with me
And tell me people tell me people
Are we gonna sit idly by
Or are we gonna stand together and try
Tell me who the hell is making the rules
And tell me why we got to listen to fools
And tell me tell me tell me
What the fuck you people teaching kids in them schools
They getting through but they ain’t getting the tools
Come on come on
Oh Lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh Lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
They was always telling me get an education
There’s only one education you got to join the organization
And even dumb as a kid as I was
I wasn’t having none of it
I couldn’t wait to move on
So tell me how does it go
Because we all got to know
And maybe you can tell me who the fuck is running this show
Cause it ain’t going so good in case you didn’t know
And now you got the patience of the people running low
I’m not political no I’m critical though
And we gotta deliver a message for sure
And it’s time that you get up and open the door
And you stand up and fight or lie down on the floor
Money I make it I give to the poor
And I don’t even need it no more
And I don’t even know what it’s for
Money can make you a ho
Make you a ho
Oh Lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
Oh lord shit’s crazy
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
Ridin with the devil now baby
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh oh oh oh
Oh Lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
Ridin with the devil now baby
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh lord shit’s crazy
Oh Lord do it again
Ridin with the devil on a southbound train
Ridin with the devil now baby
You stick the needle straight into my pain
And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh oh oh

And ride the motherfucker down the drain
Oh oh oh
