The Message - Take Me To Rio Collective/Grandmaster Flash/The Furious Five[00:00:00]

Written by：Sylvia Robinson/Melvin Glover/Clifton Chase/Edward Fletcher[00:00:01]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:00:10]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:00:11]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:00:15]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:00:16]

Broken glass everywhere[00:00:20]

People pissing on the stairs you know they just don't care[00:00:22]

I can't take the smell can't take the noise[00:00:25]

Got no money to move out I guess I got no choice[00:00:27]

Rats in the front room roaches in the back[00:00:30]

Junkies in the alley with a baseball bat[00:00:32]

I tried to get away but I couldn't get far[00:00:35]

'Cause a man with a tow truck repossessed my car[00:00:37]

Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge[00:00:40]

I'm trying not to lose my head[00:00:45]

Uh huh ha ha ha[00:00:49]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:00:50]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:00:51]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:00:55]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:00:56]

Standing on the front stoop hanging out the window[00:01:00]

Watching all the cars go by roaring as the breezes blow[00:01:02]

Crazy lady living in a bag[00:01:05]

Eating outta garbage pails used to be a fag hag[00:01:07]

Said she'll dance the tango skip the light fandango[00:01:10]

A zircon princess seemed to lost her senses[00:01:12]

Down at the peep show watching all the creeps[00:01:15]

So she can tell her stories to the girls back home[00:01:17]

She went to the city and got social security[00:01:20]

She had to get a pimp she couldn't make it on her own[00:01:22]

Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge[00:01:25]

I'm trying not to lose my head[00:01:30]

Uh huh ha ha ha[00:01:34]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:01:35]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:01:36]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:01:40]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:01:41]

My brother's doing bad stole my mother's TV[00:01:45]

Says she watches too much it's just not healthy[00:01:47]

All my children in the daytime Dallas at night[00:01:50]

Can't even see the game or the sugar ray fight[00:01:52]

The bill collectors they ring my phone[00:01:55]

And scare my wife when I'm not home[00:01:57]

Got a bum education double digit inflation[00:02:00]

Can't take the train to the job there's a strike at the station[00:02:02]

Neon King Kong standing on my back[00:02:05]

Can't stop to turn around broke my sacroiliac[00:02:07]

A mid range migraine cancered membrane[00:02:10]

Sometimes I think I'm going insane[00:02:12]

I swear I might hijack a plane[00:02:14]

Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge[00:02:15]

I'm trying not to lose my head[00:02:20]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:02:25]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:02:26]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:02:30]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:02:31]

My son said daddy I don't wanna go to school[00:02:35]

'Cause the teacher's a jerk he must think I'm a fool[00:02:37]

And all the kids smoke reefer I think it'd be cheaper[00:02:39]

If I just got a job learned to be a street sweeper[00:02:42]

Or dance to the beat shuffle my feet[00:02:45]

Wear a shirt and tie and run with the creeps[00:02:47]

Cause it's all about money ain't a damn thing funny[00:02:50]

You got to have a con in this land of milk and honey[00:02:52]

They pushed that girl in front of the train[00:02:55]

Took her to the doctor sewed her arm on again[00:02:57]

Stabbed that man right in his heart[00:03:00]

Gave him a transplant for a brand new start[00:03:02]

I can't walk through the park 'cause it's crazy after dark[00:03:04]

Keep my hand on my gun 'cause they got me on the run[00:03:07]

I feel like a outlaw broke my last glass jaw[00:03:10]

Hear them say you want some more[00:03:12]

Living on a see saw[00:03:14]

Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge[00:03:15]

I'm trying not to lose my head[00:03:20]

Say what[00:03:24]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:03:25]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:03:26]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:03:30]

It makes me wonder how I keep from going under[00:03:31]
