Kicks

Girl, you thought you found the answer on that magic carpet ride last night

But when you wake up in the mornin', the world still gets you uptight

Well, there's nothing that you ain't tried to fill the emptiness inside

But when you come back down, girl, still ain't feelin' right

And don't it seem like kicks just keep gettin' harder to find?

And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind

Before you find out it's too late, girl, you better get straight

No, but not with kicks

You just need help, girl

Well, you think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise

But it ain't happened yet, so, girl, you better think twice

Don't you see? No matter what you do, you'll never run away from you

And if you keep on runnin', you'll have to pay the price

And don't it seem like kicks just keep gettin' harder to find?

And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind

Before you find out it's too late, girl, you better get straight

No, you don't need kicks

To help you face the world each day

That road goes nowhere

I'm gonna help you find yourself

Another way

Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find (Oh, you don't need kicks, girl)

And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind (Just need help, girl)

Before you find out it's too late, girl, you better get straight

And don't it seem like kicks just keep gettin' harder to find? (Oh, you don't need kicks, girl)

And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind (Oh, you just need help, girl)

Before you find out it's too late, girl, you better get straight
