"Everybody's Going To Make It This Time" lyrics - FUNKADELIC

Our mothers and our fathers
They had lives to live
And today is proof
That mistakes were made
There's not a doubt in my heart
They done the best that they knew how
And there's still time for us to make the grade
We got to learn
From the mistakes
That were made in the past
We got to clean
So that we can use our minds
'Cause in order to get it together
Got to get our heads together
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time

Our country and our cities
They have been betrayed for money
Oh, and somehow
The people, they will make a change, yeah
There's not a doubt in my mind
If hunger and anger place the blame
There won't be a country left to change
We got to see what we're doing
In the name of comfort
We got to see
We got to feel the warning signs
But in order to get it together
We got to get our heads together
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time

We've got to learn from the mistakes
That were made in the past
We got to clean
So that we can use our minds
But in order to get it together
We got to get our heads together
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
(Everybody's going to make it this time)
(Woooooooaaaaooooh!)

Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
Everybody's going to make it this time
