Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) [Sly & The Family Stone] Songtext
von Prince

Lookin′ at the devil
Grinnin' at his gun
Fingers start shakin′
I begin to run
Bullets start chasin'
I begin to stop
We begin to wrestle
I was on the top

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again

Stiff all in the collar
Fluffy in the face
Chit chat chatter tryin′
To stop me in the place
Thank you for the party
But I could never stay
Many things on my mind
Words in the way


I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again

Dance to the music
All night long
Everyday people
Sing a simple song
Mama's so happy
Mama starts to cry
Papa still singin′
You can make it if you try

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again

Flamin' eyes of people fear, burnin' into you
Many men are missin′ much, hatin′ what they do
Youth and truth are makin' love
Dig it for a starter
Dyin′ young is hard to take
Sellin' out is harder

Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again
I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again


Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again
Thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Thank you for lettin′ me be myself again
I want to thank you for lettin′ me be myself again
I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again
