They’re telling me talk is cheap
but cheap talk will cost you much my friend
Sometimes you got to take a break
Before you break, know how much can you bend
it’s certain that the costs are steep
when steepin, know how strong you like your tea
You give me pieces of your mind,
but piece of mind your never given me How bout a change of attitude
what will it take to get you in the mood
Now cant you all see that we are havin fun
Aint got no place to hide, aint got no place to run
Can we keep it real…
if you speak your mind,
we can work it out this time
you on attack bout how they act
but what cho know bout walkin in their shoes
Deeper than the ocean blue
but no depth of emotion in your blues…
How bout a change of attitude
what will it take to get you in the mood
Now cant you all see that we are havin fun
Aint got no place to hide, aint got no place to run
Can we keep it real…
if you speak your mind,
we can work it out this time
Set it up, knock it down
keep all the pieces, hangin around
when you find yourself, a little glue
put yourself together, we’ve been waiting here for you
Can we keep it real…
