look what they have done to my song ma
look what they have done to my song
well it's the only thing
that i could do half right
and it's turning out all wrong ma
look what they have done to my song

look what they have done to my brain ma
look what they have done to my brain
well they picked it like a chicken bone
and i think i'm half insane ma
look what they have done to my song

wish i could find a good book to live in
wish i could find a good book
well if i could find a real good book
i'd never have to come out and look at
what they done to my song

c'est la seule chose que je peux faire
et ce n'est pas bon, ma.

Well they tied it up in a plastic bag
and turned it upside down ma

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright or in the darkest night
no one knows she comes and goes
* Good bye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
at such a cost
* Repeat

"There's no time to lose"
I need her say
Catch your dreams
Before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?
*Repeat

There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one
There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one

For sometimes when I am feeling as big as the land
With the velvet hill in the small of my back
And my hands are playing the sand

And my feet are swimming in all of the waters
All of the rivers are givers to the ocean
According to plan, according to man

Well sometimes when I am feeling so grand
And I become the world
And the world becomes a man

And my song becomes a part of the river
I cry out to keep me just the way I am
According to plan

According to man, according to plan
According to man, according to plan
Oh there's a chance peace will come
In your life, please buy one
Oh there's a chance peace will come
In your life, please buy one

For sometimes when we have reached the end
With the velvet hill in the small of my backs
And our hands are clutching the sand
Will our blood become a part of the river
All of the rivers are givers to the ocean
According to plan, according to man
There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one.
There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one

There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one...
