Urban Times Medley A) Inner City Blues (make Me Wanna Holle Lyrics

a) INNER CITY BLUES (MAKE ME WANNA HOLLER) 







Rockets, moon shots 



I wanna spend it on the have-nots 



Money, we make it 



Before we see it you take it 







Oh, make you wanna holler 



The way they do my life 



Make me wanna holler 



The way they do my life 



This ain't livin', No, no, no, no, no 



No, no, baby, this ain't livin' 



No, no, no, no, no 







Inflation no chance 



To increase our finance 



Bills pile up sky high 



It'll send that poor boy off to die 







Oh, make me wanna holler 



And throw up both my hands 



Yea, it makes me wanna holler 



And throw up both my hands 







Somebody say na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na, na-na-na, na-na) 



Say na-na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) 







It's gettin' so tough on the street 



That I can't stand outside my door 



Without someone standin' in front of me 



Ask before I die, I'm gettin' somethin' to eat 







Hang ups, let downs 



Bad breaks, set backs 



I said the natural fact is 



Honey, I can't even pay my taxes 







Oh, make you wanna holler 



The way they do my life 



Make me wanna holler 



The way they do my life 



No, no, no, no, no baby 



This can't be livin', livin' over me 







I said, crime increasing, increasing 



We got trigger happy policing 



Panic, panic is spreading 



But God knows where, God knows 







Oh, make me wanna holler 



And throw up both my hands 



Yea, it makes me wanna holler 



And throw up both my hands 







Somebody say na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na, na-na-na, na-na) 



Say na-na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) 







Politicians, crooked preachers 



Gettin' rich off the lies they teach us 



Brothers unemployed and homeless state 



For those who got and they'll kill for more 



Baby can't you see what's goin' on? 



We'd been lied to or far too long 



Together we can right the wrongs 



Before our time here is all gone 







Yeah, somebody say na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na, na-na-na, na-na) 



Say na-na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) 



Everybody say na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na, na-na-na, na-na) 



Say na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na 



(Na-na-na-na-na) Hit it! 











b) MERCY MERCY ME (THE ECOLOGY) 







I said just a little, a little bit of mercy 



Give it just a little mercy, a little mercy 



Give it just a little, a little bit of mercy 



Give it just a little mercy mercy mercy 







Woah, aw, mercy, mercy me 



Oh, things ain`t what they used to be, no no 



Where did all the blue skies go 



Poison is the wind that blows 



From the north and south and east 







Woah, mercy, mercy me 



Oh, things ain`t what they used to be 



Oil wasted on the oceans and across our seas 



Fish full of mercury 







Oh, mercy, mercy me 



Oh, things ain`t what they used to be 



Radiation underground and in the sky 



Animals and birds who live nearby are dying 







Oh, mercy, mercy me 



Oh, things ain`t what they used to be 



What about this over crowded land 



How much more abuse from man can she stand 







Give it just a little...Give it just a little... 



Give it just a little mercy... 



Give it just a little... 



Give it just a little...(Hello darling) 



Give it just a little mercy...(My sweet love...) 



Give it just a little mercy... 







People we all got to get together 



Cos together we have strength and power 



Can't find no work, can't find no job my friend 



Money is tighter than it's ever been 



The man I just don't understand what's goin' on 



Closest friend, oh what's goin' on 



What's gotten in my life? What's happenin'? 



What's happenin', brother? Oh 



Whats happenin'? What's happenin', brother?
