Can't Cheat Karma Lyrics
One - Two - Three - Go
I've got an ego
It won't let me go
What am I gonna do?
A - B - C - D
Paranoia's killing me
I'm dying on my aching feet
What a way to go
Roll up - Roll up
People always stroll up
Say "Why don't you grow up?"
No thank you!
Big cats, small cats
Some cats are fat cats
Those cats are bad cats
What we gonna do?
There's an awful lot of people in the world today
There's an awful lot of trouble in the streets these days
And it doesn't seem to matter what you do or say
If a change is gonna come you've got to help it on its way
A change is gonna come before too long I know
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do
You don't trust me and I don't trust you
I bet you wish you did and I know I do
Why have you got secrets? Cos I know you have
If you've got something to hide then it must be bad
A change is gonna come before too long I know
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do
You don't trust me and I don't trust you
I bet you wish you did and I know I do
Why have you got secrets? Cos I know you have
If you've got something to hide then it must be bad
A change is gonna come before too long I know
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do
I've got an ego
It won't let me go
What am I gonna do?
Paranoia's killing me
I'm dying on my aching feet
What a way to go
People always stroll up
Say "Why don't you grow up?"
No thank you!
Some cats are fat cats
Those cats are bad cats
What we gonna do?
There's an awful lot of trouble in the streets these days
And it doesn't seem to matter what you do or say
If a change is gonna come you've got to help it on its way
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do
I bet you wish you did and I know I do
Why have you got secrets? Cos I know you have
If you've got something to hide then it must be bad
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do
I bet you wish you did and I know I do
Why have you got secrets? Cos I know you have
If you've got something to hide then it must be bad
Peace has gotta come, well, I could be wrong I know
But I just don't know what I can do

"People always stroll up Say "Why don't you grow up?" No thank you! "
I think this is a little about maturity not mattering inside age.
Great song.
it's probably about individuality. Not on a strict bad sense, but how we deal with other people and with our own personality. How we deal with inevitable difference between people (big cats, small cats, some cats are fat cats), suggesting we should avoid the judgement that try to stabilish some kind of pattern (people always stroll up say "why don't you grow up") and try to find a peaceful way of living. But it is more about feeling confused in what to do dealing with the differences than a proposal of how we should live our lifes. Really great song, very sensible (reminds me someone special)
i couldve sworn this was about the state of the world...
"big cats small cats some cats are fat cats" being the fat cats with their big businesses. people strolling up saying to 'grow up' and basically, grow out of this sense that you can change the world, even though he says 'i just dont know what i can do'--to change things, that is. if a change is gona come you've got to help it on its way
best zounds song.
Yes, quiet a good song!! I think it's just about Karma and how world is wrong... bad people should be punish but everything is messed up and whatever good things you say and do you won't be reward...
