You talk 'bout Palestine and I talk 'bout Jim Hall
I don't know nothin' 'bout your middle eastern war
You talk 'bout lipstick, baby, I talk about safe sex
You still don't know nothin' 'bout how I get my kicks
But there are ways to get through life
And there are hundreds of answers
You won't get through by chances

I don't think 'bout goin' places where I've never been
Inside my soul to reach a consciouness extreme
You think 'bout how to get that heavily revenge
You got some thirst inside, babe, that you need to quench
But there are ways to get through life
And there are hundreds of answers
You won't get through by chances

I still believe that a man should have some kind of control
On how she treats her neighbour, fellow or her soul
It takes a long, long time to get to that insight
Until that that day has come, babe, please don't try to fight it
But there are ways to get through life
And there are hundreds of answers
You won't get through by chances
