John Butler Trio - Somethings Gotta Give lyrics

rate me

A little feeling in my gut that I get of late

When I think about these cats running the world with hate

I say: something's gotta give

Got the whole world fighting for the Texas Chief

Got a letter for you, got a letter for me

But the kettle's leaking like a sieve

There's a puddle on the floor

There's a puddle in the sky

The kettle's leaking so much man it's burning my eyes

Can't you just throw that damper out

On the subject of throwing stuff away

I know some deaf men who can't hear a word we say

No matter, No matter how loud we do shout

And I say...

Something's gotta give right now boy

Something's gotta give right now

Something's gotta give right now man

Something's gotta give right now

I was reading the newspaper just yesterday

Got the headlines reading God bless the USA

And I thought: God Bless Everyone

God bless the people in New York when they were attacked

God bless the children being bombed there in Iraq

God bless the goddamn junkie with a monkey on his back

God bless everybody under the sun

Cause the world ahead will end If we don't have love

Do your job and pay attention to God above

But eventually the only guarantee will be that the tea in your tank will run dry

Coz without love you know there aint no life

You can duplicate it and bottle it up all you like

But it doesn't mean you're gonna get another try

Get another try boy

Something's gotta give right now boy

Something's gotta give right now P-Yoo

Something's gotta give right now man

Something's gotta give right now

I Said..

Something's gotta give right now boy

Something's gotta give right now (Yeah)

Something's gotta give right now

Something's gotta give right now.....
