10 Cc - Feel The Benefit Lyrics
Reminisce and speculationYou went out on the street without your shoes onYou didnt listen what your momma saidShe said you wont feel the benefit, wont feel the benefitAnd if we all went out without our shoes onTell me where would we be, where would we beIf all the people in the world lost their reasonWhat would we see, where would we beIf all the entertainers in the world lost their musicWhat would they play, what could they sayTo pacify the crowd, to justify themselvesWont feel the benefitYoure like a cloud behind the sunLike the face behind the clownYoure moving like the wrinkles in a frownAnd you can never look backA leaf thats borne upon the windA cardboard suitcase in your handThe wanderer soon returnsAnd finds the colour of the grass is just the sameOn the other side of the tracks, oh noA latin breakOoh when you smile its like a holidayOoh pack your bags and we can get awayWell float on a queen down to rioTheres no need to shaveWell be stinking like rum in a punchYou can walk on the waterYou can dabble in the mumbo jumboYou can smoke a little ganjaFloat like a cloud over rio, rioYou can ride with the gauchosSwinging your bolas in a red bandanaYou can run with the devilTakin your chances with senoritaYou can drink a lot of coffee in brazilBut the bill is gonna make you illFeel the benefitSo, you can go out on the street and take your chancesBut if you do, you better do it rightOr you wont feel the benefit, wont feel the benefitSpin the wheel and take your chancesAnd your number might come upThough the odds may be in favor of the houseIf all the people in the world would say togetherWere all black and white, were all day and nightIf all the people in the world could sing togetherHow would it sound, what would we feelWed all feel the benefit
