Some folks try
To multiply
From sunrise to sunset
Leave behind
More of their kind
So no one will forget
But that aint where Im com - ing from - today
Those easy girls dont turn me on - anyway
I wanna know where my pride has gone
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine
Teachers teach
And preachers preach
Of spiritual evolution
But this big I am
From uncle sham
Just adds to my confusion
Ive seen his face, Ive heard his song - before
But I dont care what time hes on - anymore
I must have been on the streets too long
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine
I find myself outside your door
Trying to make it like before
But you dont follow what I say
And I can tell by your smile
You're no longer a child
That part of you was buried yesterday
who knows
Why they come and where they go
In this world machine?
Its the chosen fools
Who make the rules
That don't apply to me
With their fast-car games
And counter claims
Not my reality
And I dont know if I belong - today
I don't know why my friends have gone away
I must have been on the streets too long
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world mac - hine
World Machine
World Machine
Don't knock the system
We'll knock some sense in you
Don't beat the system
theres nothing you can do
I'm not sure about the Gm6 in the chorus.
Oh and the last chord of the SECOND
verse is Bb, not Gm.
