Prince — The Word

[Verse 1] What is this new exaltation That I just can't explain? What are these new inspirations That I can't get outta my brain? How am I going to sleep with this feeling Rushing all through my veins? Get up, come on let's do something Don't you wanna go get saved? [Verse 2] The night is calling you to act Act upon every urge You can't get no satisfaction If you ain't got the courage I don't know what you're afraid of I don't know what you've heard Get up, come on let's do something Don't you wanna know the word? [Chorus] Who's going to save us when them spiders get next to you? Spinning their sticky webs around what you do We gotta safeguard against forked tongue And the treachery of the wicked one Get up, come on let's do something [Verse 3] Don't matter how far you have to The truth has got to be told Don't matter how shiny your lips They'll never be streets of gold They might try to get us crazy 'Cause they don't know what I've heard We got this new exaltation I'm talking about the word [Chorus] Who's going to save us when them spiders get next to you? Spinning their sticky webs around what you do We gotta safeguard against forked tongue And the treachery of the wicked one Get up, come on let's do something [Outro] Get up, come on let's do something No reason to feel this pain Get up, come on let's do something Come on, go, let's get saved Get up, come on let's do something No reason to feel this pain Get up, come on let's do something Come on, go, let's get saved Get up, come on let's do something Get up, come on let's do something Get up, come on let's do something Get up, come on let's do something Don't you want to hear the word?
