Take a Look Around Stereo Promo Version by The Temptations Lyrics
Feather in your cap if you catch a robber
Dirt in your face if your scheme falls through
Pay close attention to my story
And you’ll find every word is true
Junk man standing on the corner
Selling death, no conscience has he
In the name of God, won’t somebody stop him
(Stop him, stop him, think about the children)
It’s a matter of life and death, can’t you see
Ain’t no time to stand back and point your finger
(Ain’t no time to point your finger)
We’ve got to face reality (Reality)
No, no, no, no, no...
Don’t turn your back on this problem, people
(No, no, no, people)
Too much depends on you and me
Desperate with no sense of values
Just an evil mind lurking through the night
Because of you, the streets ain’t safe no more for walking
(No more for walking because of you)
'Cause you’re feeling so uptight
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
Dirt in your face if your scheme falls through
Pay close attention to my story
And you’ll find every word is true
Junk man standing on the corner
Selling death, no conscience has he
In the name of God, won’t somebody stop him
(Stop him, stop him, think about the children)
It’s a matter of life and death, can’t you see
Ain’t no time to stand back and point your finger
(Ain’t no time to point your finger)
We’ve got to face reality (Reality)
No, no, no, no, no...
Don’t turn your back on this problem, people
(No, no, no, people)
Too much depends on you and me
Desperate with no sense of values
Just an evil mind lurking through the night
Because of you, the streets ain’t safe no more for walking
(No more for walking because of you)
'Cause you’re feeling so uptight
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
Take a look around — are you afraid?
Take a look around — don’ t be afraid
