paroles de chanson Compared to What - Ray Charles , Leela James

Ray Charles:
I love the lie and lie the love
Hangin' on, with a push and shove
Possession is the motivation
Messin' up the whole damn nation
Looks like we always end up in a rut
Everybody now,
Tryin' to make it real - compared to what?

Leela James:
Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs
Twisted children killin' frogs
Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs
Tired old ladies kissin' dogs
I hate the human, but love that stinking mutt
I can use it now.
Try to make it real - compared to what?

Ray Charles:
Church on Sunday, sleep and nod
Tryin' to duck the wrath of God
Preachers fillin' us with fright
Teaching what they think is right
Well they all got to be some kind of nut
I don't dig it.
Tryin' to make it real - compared to what?

Leela James:
Where's that bee and where's that honey?
Where's my God and where's my money
Unreal values, crass distortion
Unwed mothers need abortion
Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut
He did it now.
Tried to make it real - compared to what?!
