Strange Affair - Minnie Riperton

Hey there everybody, out there gettin down

Steppin with the fashions, throwin love around

Youre hustlin for money, you playin the big mans game

Going around in circles, you dont know where

Ah, youre smilin through the pain

Oh, such a strange affair

Dont it blow your mind, mon cher

I aint lyin, anything goes

You got to keep on tryin

Everybody knows we got to turn it around

Cost of livin risin

Unemployment grows (I aint got no job)

Wastin our resources

Whos makes all the dough?

(everybody but the po)

Politicians preachin

While color watchers are freakin

Children needin teachin

While for the stars were reachin

Oh, such a strange affair

Dont it blow your mind, mon cher

I cant stand it, it dont need to be that way

I dont want it Yeah, theres got to be a change

We got to turn it around
