Shelter



Superficial life – condition fun Just book yourself in – work must be done Motions on hand – well you’ll be one The money has time – and time has gone Confusion at large – to keep men down I can’t seem to turn – this thing around It feels like I’m going – to lose my mind I need a shelter for life Is the world really – just black and white I need a shelter for life Tomorrow will be – like yesterday I wish I had wings – to fly away Perpetual rain – where is the sun When this day is through – the night will come When I cry out – in the bitter night I need a shelter for life I need some help – from time to time I need a shelter for life I need a shelter for life When it is cold – there’s no help in sight I need a shelter for life ‘Cause I need some lovin’ – to keep me right I need a shelter for life Yes, I need a shelter for life Life Shelter me I need a shelter for life Yes, give me a shelter for life
