Papa don't want no music (x3)
No, no, no, no
(X2)

Woke up this morning
Head in a spin
Is this a blessing?
Is it a sin?
This energy I have
Can't keep my feet from moving
This melody I've found
Is it my mind I'm loosing?
The heat is rising
The tension building
I need someone to help me
Before it explodes around me
I need to control
This aching feeling
I need some damage control
To start the healing, because

Papa don't want no music (x3)
No, no, no, no
(x4)

He sits me down
He talks to me
He takes me back
To fifty-three
See, he remembers
The music raw
When souls were set free
And spirits soared
Now you want money 
And he can't understand it
Say he prefer his silence
To all the threat and violence
We got to look good
'What about feeling good?', he says 
'Mr Brown would be ashamed
Of you and I', and that's why

Papa don't want no music (x3)
No, no, no, no
(x4)
