Give up, give up....      Here we go another civil rights song      Got it all wrong, doesn't do nothing   Sing, sing, singing until my face is blue   But what do you do?   Don't do nothing      Chorus:   Uh oh, take a step, move   in the right direction   Uh oh, take a look, make a move   for civilization      Here we go in a brand new year   What do I hear, but the same street talking   Cuz black and whitey are having a fight   Over who is right, and the time is near for      Chorus      Here we go again talking 'bout race   It's the same newspaper with the same old space   Standing for something that you don't really know   If we don't work it out, we're all gonna go      Chorus      One more time, so hear me through   Talking 'bout me, we're talking 'bout you   So, one more time just to get it right   You better get moving, for we start tonight      Chorus   Chorus (outro)
