Lyrics
well i'm about to get upset, watchin' my tv, checkin' out the news, until my eyeballs fail to see, i mean to say that every day, there's just another rotten mess, and when it's gonna change, my friends, is anybody's guess, so i'm watchin' and i'm waitin', hopin' for the best, even think i'll go to prayin', every time i hear 'em sayin', that there's no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, wednesday i watched the riot, i seen the cops out on the street, watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff, and chokin' in the heat, listened to reports, about the crack that's goin' round, seen the smoke and fire, and the market burnin' down, watched while everybody, on your street would take a turn, to stomp and smash and bash and crash, and slash and bust and burn, and i'm watchin' and i'm waitin', hopin' for the best, even think i'll go to prayin', every time i hear 'em sayin', that there's no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, well you can cool it, you can heat it, 'cause, baby, i don't need it, take your tv tube and eat it, and all that phony stuff on sports, and all the unconfirmed reports, you know i watched that rotten box, until my head began to hurt, from checkin' out the way, the newsmen say they get the dirt, before the guys on channel so-and-so, can further their research, and if anybody gets the news, before it hits the street, they say that no one blabs it faster, their coverage can't be beat, and if another woman driver, gets machine-gunned from her seat, they'll send some joker with a brownie, and we'll see it all complete, so i'm watchin' and i'm waitin', hopin' for the best, even think i'll go to prayin', every time i hear 'em sayin', that there's no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, no way to delay, that trouble comin' every day, no way to delay, that trouble comin' everyday, no way to delay, that trouble everyday, yeah, it just makes me wanna play the blues
