Under these circumstances, they can hardly cope
Notice their fleeting glances and their lack of hope
I offer this suggestion, they don't seem to care, oh
This is my generation, drowning in despair, oh
You'll never find peace of mind in your pool of self
You'll never find peace of mind in a sea of wealth
You'll never find peace of mind in your rock and roll
You'll never find peace of mind if you sell your soul
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some freedom from the strife
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some Jesus in your life
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need it
We circumvent our feelings through an angry sound
He, who complains the loudest, wears the fattest crown
We're anti-everybody, call it paranoia
Well, I ain't no judge or jury, but I'm praying for ya
You'll never find peace of mind in your lucky charm
You'll never find peace of mind on a hippie farm
You'll never find peace of mind in a one night stand
You'll never find peace of mind in your Superman
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some freedom from the strife
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some Jesus in your life
You gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some Jesus, yeah
Like it...
Love it...
Need it...
Yo, need it...
Hey, come on
Like it... (I know you like it)
Love it...
Need it... (I know you need it)
Yo, need it...
Hey, ya set break into the middle of a freak attack
'Cause we're back and we're comin' like that
Ya see, we're lowerin' the boom in the middle of the tune
'Cause the funk is always heavy where it's at
I know you're whining all the time, never changing any minds
It is clear to see your lip has lost it's button
So if ya take a think at this, I'd say it's easy to admit
That the selfish way you're living is for nothin'
They live for nothin'
I know you know what I live for nothin' for, thanks
You only got about 70 years, anyway (oooh, yeah, don't you)
You gotta like it
You know you need some freedom from the strife
You gotta love it
I know you need some Jesus in your life
Look, you gotta like it, you gotta love it
I know you need some freedom from the strife
You gotta like it (you gotta like it), you gotta love it (you gotta love it)
I know you need some Jesus in your life
You gotta like it (you gotta like it), you gotta love it (you gotta love it)
I know you need it (yeah, yeah)
You gotta like it (you gotta like it), you gotta love it (you gotta love it)
God knows ya, God knows you need it (oooh, yeah)
Oooh yeah, oooh yeah
Oooh yeah, oooh yeah
Oooh yeah, oooh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Some Jesus in your life
Jesus in your life
Oh, oooh, oooh, yeah
Oooh yeah, hey
Oooh oooh oooh oooh, oooh yeah (yeah)
Oooh oooh oooh oooh, oooh yeah (yeah)
Yeah, oooooh!
You need it
We need it
You need it, yeah
We need some Jesus!
Love it, like it
Love it, need it
Alleluia, yeah!
