lyrics

You Gotta Get Around Town

You gotta get around town.
There's always somethin' going on
And even if there ain't,
You gotta make it happen.

'Cause boredom ain't no good
for a lover;
And a restless heart won't do.
I want to fall in love anew.

If only she knew my feelings,
Then it would be understood.
My problem is, they're healing;
And it ain't doing me no good.

'Cause when you're trapped
in someone else's dream,
You don't stand a chance.
So tell me what do you want
from romance?

Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh...

Unity ain't no good for a rebel,
Til the rebel stands alone
And shouts out what we all want
To no one.

Compassion is perfect for a
soldier
Who's gonna put down his gun.
When war is over,
The whole world will have won.

You gotta get around town,
To make the movement move;
And to move the movement,
Your heart has got to prove

Although the world is full of
riots of one,
There are thoughts we all share.
Revolution is when my love is
Near.

Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh...
