[Lsk]
Hey friend your misery bewilders me
How come you're never satisfied or gratified
Four walls n' a roof, electricity,
Stable mind, wife and child,
Hot and cold water to run anytime.
But still you, whine.
I want more
A bum could rummage through ya bin
And live like a king
On just one crumb o'ya cake
N'ya say ya life needs fulfilling
Some would give anything to live like you
Shame your mind, don't shine
Like your possessions do.
Whining, complaining all the time,
Don't see no rain on you
What side your bread is buttered on
If only you knew
What d'ya mean
I want more
Yep
I was told as a child,
I want more never gets
Learned to count my blessings
Long before I saw an abacus
So what ya family don't speak
At least they're alive
Show me a man without guilt
Or a soul that ain't lied
You don't know what ya got
Open your eyes, look around
Really, hear me you,
Ain't got no reason to be down
What d'ya mean
I want more
Friend what is it that you seek
What is it that you try to find
Someday I hope you realized
It shined in you all the time.
Hills to climb, sights to see, seas to cross,
Friends to make, hands to shake, the world is yours,
Foods to taste, sounds to hear, love to feel,
Seeds to sew, things to know, fish to reel,
Space to quiz, stones to lift, life's a gift
What d'ya mean
I want more
Yep
What d'ya mean
I want more
Yep

[Nina Simone]
I want more
I want some
And then some
And do you know what I wanna hear?
I want more
I want some more
And then some
I want more (3x)
You know how I love that stuff
I want more (3x)
[Maxi Jazz]
I want more
[Nina Simone]
I want more
The waiting's been so long, so long.
I want more
Been so long
[Maxi Jazz]
I want more
More oneness, less categories,
Open hearts, no strategies.
Decisions based upon faith and not fear.
People live right now and right here.
I want the wisdom that wise men revere.
[Maxi Jazz & Nina Simone]
I want more (4x)
