Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

One, Two, One Two Three Four hey!
People moving out,People moving in.
why, because of the color of their skin
run, run, run but you sho' can't hide
eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,
vote for me and I'll set you free
rap on, brother, rap on

Well, the only person talking about
love thy brother is the preacher
and it seems
nobody's interested in learning
but the teacher
segregation, determination, demonstration, intergration,
Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation

Ball of confusion, oh yeah
That's what the world is today, hey

The sale of pills are at an all time high
young folks walking round with their heads in the sky
the cities ablaze in the summertime, and oh
the beat goes on

evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul
shooting rockets to the moon
kids growing up too soon
politicians say more taxes,
will solve everything
and the band played on

So, round and around and around we go
where the world's headed, nobody knows
Oh, Great Googamooga,
can't you hear me talking to you
just a ball of confusion, oh yeah
that's what the world is today, hey

Fear in the air, tension everywhere
unemployment rising fast,
the Beatles new record's a gas
and the only safe place to live,
is on an indian reservation
and the band played on

Eve of destruction, tax deduction
city inspectors, bill collectors
mod clothes in demand,
population out of hand,
suicide, too many bills
hippies moving to the hills
people all over the world
are shouting end the war
and the band played on

Oh, Great Googamooga,
can't you hear me talking to you
just a ball of confusion,
that's what the world is today, hey

let me hear,
let me hear,
let me hear you say
a ball of confusion,
that's what the world is today, hey

let me hear,
let me hear,
let me hear you say
a ball of confusion,
that's what the world is today,
