For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people

For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people

There's some people up there hoggin' everything
Tellin' lies, givin' alibis about the people's money and things
And if they gonna throw it away, might as well give some to me
Yeah they seen and heard it, but never had misery
There are some people who are starvin' to death
Never knew but only hate us, and they never had happiness
Oh, oh, oh, if you don't have enough to eat, how can you think of love
You don't have the time to care so it's crime you're guilty of, oh yeah

For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people
For God's sake, why don't you give more power to the people

Cut this jive and see who's got the power to kill the most
When they run out of power, the world's gonna be a ghost
They know we're not satisfied, so we begin to holler
Makin' us a promise and throwin' a few more dollars
There's no price for happiness, there's no price for love
Up goes the price of livin', and you're right back where you was
So whatever you got, just be glad you got it
Now we're gonna get on up and get some more of it



EDIT: VIDEO REPLACED

Where did it go

I think the venue are working their way through youtube getting the original videos removed

That is truly unfortunate. Those were so good. I do not understand their thinking. It seems that it would be good to for people to see how good that event was, and draw even a bigger crowd next time. I guess I'm just out of tune.

BTW, Joss looked and sounded soooooo goooood!! I think of her as the "Lavender Goddess"

And to all you that are going tomorrow, have a great time!!!

It's a shame but hopefully UTB in London will upload the gig after tomorrow, I know I'd like to watch it back and we haven't got long until the album is released either

It's going to be available on msnuk worldwide but for some reason not the USA

Im fairly certain someone will get it on youtube though

You're perfect in tune.
About removing the videos I don't see the point either. Unless they 're planning to put the whole thing on some kind of "official" DVD which is not very probable. Or maybe some TV companies recorded the event and they will put in on air sometime soon.
Anuway all these new internet regulations are the perfect definition of the word crap.

It drives me crazy! I would be happy to buy it from them if it were available, but that does not seem to be the case. I would love to buy her concerts. I just don't understand it. I wish Joss would do it herself if she could, that is record her concerts and then when she is done with her tour or whatever she could offer them for sale. If I saw every bit of her gig ahead of time that would only make me more anxious to go see her live if I had the chance. I know it is not her, it is just the way the system is. All these venues record the gigs, if for no other reason than they are putting it up on the big screens at the event. It is such a shame that it never seems to go anywhere from there, and as we see if it does leak out they squash it. It's a bunch of

Amazing song!!!

Exclusive listen!

I was about to post it
I love it so freakin' much!! I hope we'll get a download link soon

I like it very catchy

Amazing song and the intro it's absolutely...

I have some doubts about the lyrics, please...

First at 1:23: "Cut this jive and see who's got the power
When they run out of it, the world's gonna be a ghost"

Since 2:15 she says:

"Pete, tell me what you think about it?

For God's sake,
So we're leaving too late.

For God's sake
Gotta to give more power to the people
For God's sake

Are you listening to your people? now listen up!
It's getting tighter, It's getting tighter
For God's sake
Give more power to the people, please, come on now,
Open up your ears
Give more power to the people
For God's sake
For God's sake
You really oh, give it now

Give more power to the people, give it!"

Is this correct or have some mistakes?

Lyrics to For God's Sake Give More Power To The People :


For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people

There's some people up there hoggin' everything
Tellin' lies, givin' alibis about the people's money and things
And if they gonna throw it away, might as well give some to me
Yeah they seen and heard it, but never had misery
There are some people who are starvin' to death
Never knew but only hate us, and they never had happiness
Oh, oh, oh, if you don't have enough to eat, how can you think of love
You don't have the time to care so it's crime you're guilty of, oh yeah

For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people
For God's sake, why don't you give more power to the people

Cut this jive and see who's got the power to kill the most
When they run out of power, the world's gonna be a ghost
They know we're not satisfied, so we begin to holler
Makin' us a promise and throwin' a few more dollars
