Kinks - Give The People What They Want Lyrics
Hey, hey, hey...Give the people what they wantWell, its been said before, the world is a stageA different performance with every age.Open the history book to any old pageBring on the lions and open the cage.Give the people what they wantYou gotta give the people what they wantThe more they get, the more they needAnd every time they get harder and harder to pleaseThe roman promoters really did things right.They needed a show that would clearly excite.The attendance was sparse so they put on a fightThrew the christians to the lions, sold out every nightGive the people what they wantYou gotta give the people what they wantThe more they get, the more they needAnd every time they get harder and harder to pleaseGive em lots of sex, perversion and rapeGive em lots of violence, and plenty to hateGive the people what they wantGive the people what they wantWhen olswald shot kennedy, he was insaneBut still we watch the re-runs again and againWe all sit glued while the killer takes aimHey mom, there goes a piece of the presidents brain!Give the people what they wantYou gotta give the people what they wantBlow out your brains, and do it rightMake sure its prime time and on a saturday night.You gotta give the people what they wantYou gotta give the people what they wantGive the people what they wantGive the people what they wantGive the people what they want
