Politicians promise all they can,
To get elected, hmm, they make a better land. In the smoke filled rooms they're makin' all their plans, But when the smoke gets cleared y' know it's just a scam. I'm just an average, ordinary kind o' guy, Punchin' in at nine, punchin' out at five, Doin' all I can to pay the bills on time, No matter how hard I try I just can't get by. *Taxed to the max, but we can't get the facts, They just tell us what they think we ought to know. We get taxed to the max, but we don't get it back, Someone tell me where the money really goes. Weapons systems - Uh! - National defense, Vested interests, hmm, it doesn't make no sense. What we think we're getting' ain't always what we get, They keep raisin' all out taxes and we get deeper, deeper in debt. I'm just an average, ordinary kind o' man, Slightly underpaid, tryin' to understand, No matter what I make it's never quite enough, I wanna do my share, but it just ain't fair! *Repeat(x2) HORN BREAK, RHYTHM BREAK I'm just an average, ordinary kind o' guy, Punchin' in at nine, punchin' out at five, Doin' all I can to pay the bills on time, No matter how hard I try I just can't get by, ooh! Taxed to the max, but we can't get the facts, They just tell us what they think we ought to know. Taxed to the max, but we don't get it back, Someone tell me where the money really goes. |

I've been through all them changes,
A lot of stuff came down. I've dealt with all the issues, You might say I've been around. But back when I got started, There was a righteous sound. It doesn't matter what I've been through, I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. Ya know the more things change, The more they stay the same. It may be a different age, But I'm on the same page. Cause one thing that I've found, I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. I had an attitude adjustment, I did some psycho therapy. I helped myself to some self-help, I dabbled in some ESP. Though my world is ever-changing, And I move from town to town, It doesn't matter where I've been to, I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. Ya know the more things change, The more they stay the same. It may be a different age, But I'm on the same page. Cause one thing that I've found, I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. You got your rap and your disco, You got your drum machine. You got your R-rated gangster, You got your grungy scene. You got your state of the art, You got your digital sound. It doesn't matter where it's going to I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. Take it to the bridge, It'll get ya where ya live. When there's water all around, You can still get outta town, And still be diggin' on James Brown. Ya know the more things change, The more they stay the same. It may be a different age, But I'm on the same page. Cause one thing that I've found, I'll still be diggin' on James Brown. |
