Tekst piosenki 'God Control (Live at the Coliseu dos Recreios, Lisbon, Portugal)' wykonawcy Madonna

Everybody knows the damn truth
Our nation lied, we lost respect
When we wake up, what can we do?
Get the kids ready, take them to school

Everybody knows they don’t have a chance
To get a decent job, to have a normal life
When they talk reforms, it makes me laugh
They pretend to help, it makes me laugh

I think I understand why peopl e get a gun
I think I understand why we all give up
Evеry day they have a kind of victory
Blood of innocencе, spread everywhe re
They say that we need love
But we need more than this

We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control

This is your wake-up call
I'm like your nightmare
I'm here to start your day

This is your wake-up call
We don’t have to fall
A new democracy
God and pornography, hey girl!
A new democracy

People think that I'm insane
The only gun is in my brain
Each new birth, it gives me hope
That’s why I don’t smoke that dope

Insane people think I am
Brain inside my only friend
Hope it gives me birth each new
That dope I don’t smoke, it’s true

Everybody knows the damn truth
Everybody knows the damn truth (wake you p)
We need to wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
We need to wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up

It’s a hustle, yeah
It’s a con
It’s a hustle
It’s a con

It’s a weird kind of energy, a bizarre thing that happens to be
An abnormal fraternity, and I feel more than sympathy
We need to wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
We need to wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up

Everybody knows the damn truth
Everybody knows the damn truth (wake up)
We got to wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up

A new democracy!

Everybody knows the damn truth
Our nation lied, we’ve lost respect
When we wake up, what can we do (we lost God control)
Get the kids ready, take them to school (we lost God control)

Everybody knows they don’t have a chance (we lost God control)
Get a decent job, have a normal life (we lost God control)
When they talk reforms, it makes me laugh (we lost God control)
They pretend to help, it makes me laugh (we lost God control)

We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control
We lost God control

(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
