Life Is Funky lyrics

Yesterday, I was walking down the street and feeling
Just great, the sun was shining down, I saw this
Guy there, used to live on my block, sitting on the
Sidewalk, like he didn`t see it coming
It was the first time I had seen a living person cross that
Fine line between down and out
And I could see that life is funky
Shows no mercy for the underdog
Babbles like a charming junkie
Keeps us listening to the story
In my town there are lots of fancy houses, fancy
People sipping cappuccino, and in the
Next block, folks are going kinda` crazy `cause they`re
Out of work, in a sea of money
I shouldn`t get into it, but can`t there be some way to
Even it out a bit, between the fat cats and the mice
Don`t hold your breath `cause life is funky
Sells its children for the bottom line
Staggers like a jonesing junkie
Keeps us acting out the story
Don`t anybody move cause life is funky, funky, funky
(guitar solo)
Don`t you know that life is funky
Wants to party all night long
Wakes up feeling like a junkie
Wonders what the hell went wrong
Everybody knows life is funky
Shows no mercy for the underdog
Babbles like a charming junkie
Keeps us listening to the story.
