(A minor) I went looking for a (G major) job
every (C major) day last (A minor) week
But it turned into a crazy game (G major)
of (C major) hide (A minor) -and -seek
Because every place I (C major) seemed

I might as well apply for (G major) food

People like
(A minor) Hercules, (G major) your (C major) body is (A minor) strong,
but your mind is like the (G major) devil, (C major) your ideals
are (A minor) wrong.
You hurt (C major) people's feelings and mess with their minds,
then have the nerve to call me brother
and wave the peace sign.
The young and the old, they all hate your sight,
because of people like you, they're
scared to walk in the night.

The prob (C major) lems of the world
today are bigger than life
You have recessions and depressions
Men are cheating on their wives
Babies born each morn
With part of their bodies gone
Because of some crazy drug
That their mothers was on
There's countries fighting, not uniting
Always putting each other down
(F major) Black (A minor) s and (C major) whites don't realize that
they're really pink and (A minor) brown
You've got gun joke,
(G major) cut joke, (C major) stress and (A minor) strife
And looking out for number
one (C major) is a (A minor) way of life
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
