PRINCE - Things Have Gotta Change lyrics

rate me

Get on top, u will cop

cream

The time is now, take the chance

Get on top, you will cop, winner takes all

As we dance to the

rhythm of the cream beat

Never will you see me drowning in

A pool of self-pity

So, as a I ooze with the flow

Here we go, and if you gimme an end,

so take a little mo'

The army of the brothers shall overcome,

bring in a crash from the drums

Things have gotta change

Get on top, u will cop, ho!

Everbody, Things have gotta change (cream)

Get on top, u will cop (boogie)

Although the times have changed

Some things remain

I say love thy neighbor, and I'll kick him if he ain't got the game

the rules of desire read double standards,

and if you're weak in the game

that's somethin' that u'll die 4.

yeah, come on, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

everybody, things have gotta change!

get on top, u will cop, ho! (boogie)

Like MLK of yesterday, who died to keep a dream alive

funny, but it seems like he died in vain

cause as I look around I see we ain't learned shit

and if the words are sticking, then hit me with it

cause u've gotta be true to yourself

do the best you can with the hand u've been dealt

u see, I wouldn't have it any other way,

cause it's part of the game we play

come on (cream)

Yeah, things have gotta change! (boogie)

get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

everybody, things have gotta change!

yeah, get on top

the army of the brothers shall overcome

and never succumb to the hum-drum

saving the key to person's brain, no!

free your mind and your ass will follow

u've got 2 stand strong

and never count down

to a sucker with a closed mind

walkin' the thin line,

still livin' the days of the breadline

since this is the 90's,

reach a little higher,

NPG, take it 2 the wire (cream)

yeah, things have gotta change! (boogie)

yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

everybody, things have gotta change! (boogie)

yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho!

Is today just another replay of yesterday

A country in disarray, discrimination a mainstay

I'm not naive that's why I contemplate

if that's truly the faith,

then there's no time to waste

so let's get ready to go the length, on the strip

we're prospering together as one in this environment

yeah, come on, things have gotta change! (boogie)

yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

everybody, things have gotta change! (boogie)

yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

(boogie, cream, boogie, cream)

everybody, things have gotta change!

get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream)

everybody, things have gotta change!

get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream )
