lyrics

Probably maybe.
They can try, they can try, hold on tight tonight,
Get it on, get it on, on, on, on

Paint the pictures, rip up the scriptures
Lose all those chains wrapped up round your brains
Keeping you a prisoner in your own headspace
Open a window, just let some fresh air in
Start as you mean to begin.
And I guess you can teach them a few lessons or two

Get it on, get it on, on, on, on

Paint the scriptures, rip up the pictures
Lose all those brains wrapped up round your chains
Keeping you a prisoner in your own headspace
Open a window, just let some fresh air in
Start as you mean to begin.
Keep your chin up, wear no frown, see there’s no need to be feeling down
Just laugh at them clowns who haven’t got a clue, un-time and undo
Lots of suppression,
Smile with a positive expression,
And I bet you can teach them a few lessons or two

Get it on, get it on, on, on, on

Hold on, hold on tight tonight

Light shines soul beam
Rhythm bounce shape melody
Mind vision spirits stimulate
Pure heart inspire translate
Open channel message connect
Body feel roots respect
Blood clean clear philosophy
Faith hope love and peace
