The world around   gotcha down   you got high blood pressure people pushin' you around   and some wanna tell you how you should behave   cut your hair the right way, tell you what to say, hang   out with the right folks   become a fashion slave       But do you wanna feel free   but do you wanna feel freaky and free   but do you wanna feel free   do you wanna feel free, free, free, freaky and free       (chorus)   Take ya time   unwind ya mind   we all need a little soulshine   take ya time   unwind ya mind   we could use a little soulshine       9 to 5, people tryin'a stay alive   hard livin' in the city   find a diamond in the sewer but the gas bills rise   but I got to say to them what's in all mean   ya got a take a loan   to pay the bill on the phone   educated, graduated but you can't get a job       But do you wanna feel free   but do you wanna feel freaky and free   but do you wanna feel free   do you wanna feel free, free, free, freaky and free   (chorus)
