Feel The Benefit ((Pts. 1, 2 & 3))

You went out on the street without your shoes on

You didn't listen what your momma said

She said, "You won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit"

And if we all went out without our shoes on

Tell me where would we be, where would we be?

All the people in the world lost their reason

What would we see, where would that be?

If all the entertainers in the world lost their music

What would they play, what could they say

To pacify the crowd, to justify themselves?

Won't feel the benefit

You're like a cloud behind the sun

Like the face behind the clown

You're movin' like the wrinkles in a frown

You can never look back

A leaf that's borne upon the wind

Cardboard suitcase in your hand

The wanderer soon returns

And finds the color of the grass is just the same

On the other side of the tracks, oh no

Ooh, when you smile it's like a holiday

Ooh, pack your bags and we can get away

We'll float on a queen down to Rio

There's no need to shave

We'll be stinking like rum in a punch

You can walk on the water

You can dabble in the mumbo jumbo

You can smoke a little ganja

Fly like a bird over Rio, Rio

You can ride with the Gauchos

Shakin' your bolas in a red bandanna

You can run with the devil

Takin' your chances with Senorita

You can drink a lot of coffee in Brazil

But the bill is gonna make you ill

So, you can go out on the street and take your chances

But if you do, you better do it right

Or you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit

Spin the wheel and take your chances

And your number might come up

Though the odds may be in favor of the house

All the people in the world could say together

"We're all black and white, we're all day and night"

All the people in the world could sing together

How would it sound, and what would we feel?

We'd all feel the benefit
