Lyrics

Free Your Mind (While You Still Got Time)

Thanks for stopping by my sickbed
To tell me where I'm going when I'm dead
To tell me all about the wrath to come
Some creeps or flowers would have done

Free your mind while you still got time
I wouldn't change your life for mine
You have to wonder how you sleep at night
Don't be a go and roll your life

You only get three score in ten
You don't get to go around again
Look like you set too high a price
For a ticket to paradise
Compulsory love, does that sound wrong?
They got a name for that where I come from

Free your mind while you still got time
I wouldn't change your life for mine
You have to wonder how you sleep at night
Don't be a go and roll your life

Free your mind while you still got time
I wouldn't change your life for mine
You have to wonder how you sleep at night
Don't be a go and roll your life

There's two ways that I can go
Up above or down below
What's to choose now? Take your pick
'Cause I don't want your carrot
And I ain't scared of your stick
No easier target than the tired and weak
Come back and try it when I'm on my feet

Free your mind while you still got time
I wouldn't change your life for mine
You have to wonder how you sleep at night
Don't be a go and roll your life

Yeah, yeah
Woo-hoo
Yeah, yeah, yeah
