Sly and the Family Stone — If Its Not Addin Up

[Verse 1] When it's not addin' up Baby, you should multiply Everything that they subtract If they know something we should try Chosen ways we're livin' in It gives so many reasons to play If your vision starts givin' in When you need it most to stay [Chorus] Looks like it's not addin' up Looks like it's not addin' up Seems it's not addin' up Looks like it's not addin' up [Verse 2] Although mom she raised no fool Like all guys I'm tryin' to blame (tryin' to blame) Little no no's tryin' to be cool And she's the one that gave me my name (gave me my name) [Chorus] If it's not addin' up If it's not addin' up Seems it's not addin' up, y'all Seems it's not addin' up [Verse 3] ABC to XYZ What a pretty alphabet (alphabet) When you're finding out and you see It has not been worded yet (worded yet) [Outro] If it's not adding up It seems it's not adding up If it's not adding up If it's not adding up Don't you think like it's not adding up Looks like it's not adding up
