hey mama don't you treat me wrong

because we're still playing that same old song

i don't care about the run or live

can we sing for the ones who can't get a grip

so come on come on come on

what you are

can't expect better than this

cause it's what you are

trade your ignorance for bliss

what you are

never a thought for someone else

cause it's what you are

are put your conscience on the shelf

baby come on down

well i'm thinking about the places that i'll never see

all the other places i don't wanna be

sit there wondering where's my self control

so put your hands in the air everybody hit the floor

so come on come on come on

are what you are

can't expect better than this

cause it's what you are

trade your ignorance for bliss

what you are

never a thought for someone else

cause it's what you are

put your conscience on the shelf

baby come on down

you say you want my baby

you say you want my baby

you say you want my baby

eh eh eh what you are

can't expect better than this

cause it's what you are

changer in ignorance for bliss

what you are

never a thought for someone else

cause that's what you are

you put your conscience on the shelf

baby come on down
