Over and Over Songtext
von MC5

People talkin′ 'bout solutions (over and over)
About how we need a revolution (over and over)
I was talking ′bout ecology (over and over)
'Bout how we'll be saved by technology (over and over)

While the cat next door spends all his time
Tryin′ to think up new antisocial crimes

I said no
I said hang on a minute now
I set let me outta here
I said no, no, no, whoa!

People talkin′ revolution (over and over)
About a mass execution (over and over)
Well, I was working in a factory (over and over)
Just trying to make it satisfactory (over and over)

But all these inclinations toward manic frustration
I want my vaccination against castration
Vietnam, what a sexy war
Uncle Sam's a pimp, wants us to be whores


I said no
I said I can′t take much more of this
You better let me outta here
I said no, no, no, whoa!

Oh, you see I need a release for my frustration
Oh, don't you see, I can′t hold my aggravation?
Oh, mmm, hmm-mmm
No, no, no, no

I see people dyin' (over and over)
Why don′t I sit around cryin'? (Over and over)
I see people taking (over and over)
Why don't I sit around waitin′? (Over and over)

The cop on the street wants us down on our knees
The president says we′ve got to have peace
The other cat says we need our liberation
The hippies tellin' us we′re in the love generation

I said whoa
I said hang on a minute now
This can't go on much longer
I said no, no, no, whoa!


Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
