Walkin' On The Sun (Live)

[Spoken Intro]

You like that beat, huh?

Oh, yeah

Check it out

[Verse 1]

It ain't no joke, I'd like to buy the world a toke

And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony

And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars

Hey, I know it's just a song but it's spice for the recipe

This is a love attack, I know it went out but it's back

It's just like any fad, it retracts before impact

And just like fashion, it's a passion for the with-it and hip

If you got the goods, they'll come and buy it

Just to stay in the clique

[Chorus]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out

Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the offer's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Verse 2]

Twenty-five years ago, they spoke out and they broke out

Of recession and oppression, and together they toked

And they folked out with guitars around a bonfire

Just singin' and clappin', man, what the hell happened?

Then some were spellbound, some were hell-bound, some, they fell down

And some got back up and fought back against the meltdown

And their kids were hippie chicks, all hypocrites

Because fashion is smashing the true meaning of it

[Chorus]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out

Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the offer's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Organ Solo]

[Verse 3]

It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked

With her tears because her baby's life has been revoked

The bond is broke up, so choke up and focus on the close up

Mr. Wizard can't perform no godlike hocus-pocus

So don't sit back, kick back and watch the world get bushwhacked

News at ten, your neighborhood is under attack

Put away the crack before the crack puts you away

You need to be there when your baby's old enough to relate

[Chorus]

So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out

Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive

And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow

But if the offer's shunned

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

[Outro]

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun

You might as well be walkin' on the sun
