Earth, Wind & Fire - System Of Survival

The human race is runnin' over me
I punch a clock at 9 and 5 just tryin' to make a livin'
A plastic face on satellite TV
Says, life is filled with give and take, he's takin' and I'm givin'

So I dance
It's my system of survival
Hey I'm dancin'
System of survival
It's a system of survival, future revival
Greet the new arrival
It's a system of survival, future revival
Greet the new arrival

At times it's the only way
I'm gonna make it through this day

Everybody get up, do your dance
Keep survivin'
Everybody get up, do your dance
Stay alive

System of survival

A city night I walk a street in fear
While politicians brag about a paperwork solution
Another life I shed another tear
I'm waiting for somebody new to lead the revolution

So I dance
It's my system of survival
Hey I'm dancin'
System of survival
It's a system of survival, future revival
Greet the new arrival
It's a system of survival, future revival
Greet the new arrival

Everybody get up, do your dance
Keep survivin'
Everybody get up, do your dance
Stay alive

Oh let's work, oh let's work, hey, hey, oh let's work

SOS, SOS
Send it out, send it out, send it out
