What about the time? You were rollin' over
Fall on your face, you must be having fun
Walk lightly! Think of a time
You'd best believe this thing is real

Put away that gun - this part is simple
Try to recognize what is in your mind
God help us! Help us loose our minds
These slippery people help us understand

What's the matter with him? He's alright!
I see his face, the lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the lord won't mind
We're gonna move, right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel

I remember when sittin' in the tub
Pulled out the plug, the water was runnin' out
Cool down, stop acting crazy
They're gonna leave and we'll be on our own
Seven times five they were living creatures
Watch 'em come to life right before your eyes
Backsliding! How do you do?
These slippery people gonna see you through

What's the matter with him? He's alright!
How do you know? The lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the lord won't mind
We're gonna move, right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel ....
