keep it loose, keep it tight

well i walked over the bridge

into the city where i live

and i saw my old landlord. well we both said hello

there was no where else to go

'cuz his rent i couldn't afford. well relationships change

oh i think it's kinda strange

how money makes a man grow. some people they claim

if you get enough fame

you live over the rainbow. over the rainbow. but the people on the street

out on buses or on feet

we all got the same blood flow. oh

in society

every dollar got a deed

we all need a place so we can go

and feel over the rainbow. but sometimes

we forget what we got

who we are. oh who are are not. i think we gotta chance

to make it right. keep it loose

keep it tight. keep it tight. i'm in love with a girl

who's in love with the world

though i can't help but follow. though i know some day

she is bound to go away

and stay over the rainbow. gotta learn how to let her go. over the rainbow. sometimes we forget who we got

who they are. oh

who they are not. there is so much more in love

than black and white. keep it loose child

gotta keep it tight. keep it loose child

keep it tight. keep it tight

keep it tight

yaa.
