God control lyrics - Madonna song

Everybody knows the damn truth
Our nation lied, and lost respect
When we wake up, what can we do?
Get the kids ready, take them to school

Everybody knows they don't have a chance
To get a decent job, to have a normal life
When they talk reforms, it makes me laugh
They pretend to help, it makes me laugh

I think I understand why people get a gun
I think I understand why we all give up
Every day they have a kind of victory
Loving ourselves, spread everywhere

They say that we need love
But we need more than this

We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control

This is your wake-up call
I'm like your nightmare
I'm here to start your day

This is your wake-up call
We don't have to fall
A new democracy
God and pornography

A new democracy

People think that I'm insane
The only gun is in my brain
Each new birth, it gives me hope
That's why I don't smoke that dope

Insane people think I am
Brain inside my only friend
Hope it gives me birth each new
That dope I don't smoke it's true

Everybody knows the damn truth
Everybody knows the damn truth, wake up

We got to wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
We need to wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

It's a hustle, yeah
It's a hustle
It's a con
It's a hustle

It's a weird kind of energy
A bizarre thing that happens to be
An abnormal fraternity
And I feel more than sympathy

We need to wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
We need to wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

People think that I'm insane
The only gun is in my brain
Each new birth, it gives me hope
That's why I don't smoke that dope

Insane people think I am
Brain inside my only friend
Hope it gives me birth each new
That dope I don't smoke it's true

Everybody knows the damn truth
Everybody knows the damn truth

We need to wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up

Ah, ah, ah, ah...
A new democracy

Everybody knows the damn truth
Our nation lied, we've lost respect
When we wake up, what can we do?
Get the kids ready, take them to school

Everybody knows they don't have a chance
To get a decent job, to have a normal life
When they talk reforms, it makes me laugh
They pretend to help, it makes me laugh

We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
