People moving out,
People moving in,
Why, because of the color of their skin,
Run, run, run, but you just can't hide.
An eye for an eye,
Tooth for a tooth,
Vote for me and I'll set you free,
Rap on, brother, rap on.
Well, the only person talking about loving thy brother is the preacher,
And it seems nobody's interested in learning, but the teacher,
Segregation, demonstration, intergration, determination, aggravation, humiliation,
Obligation to our nation.
Ball of confusion,
That's what the world is today, hey.
The sale of pills is at an all time high,
Young folks walk with their heads in the sky,
The cities aflame in the summertime,
And oh the beat goes on.
Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul-shooting rockets to the moon,
Kids growing up too soon,
Politicians say, "More taxes will solve everything,"
The band played on.
So, round and around and around we go,
Where the world's headed, nobody knows
Oh, Great Googamooga,
Can't you hear me talking to you,
Just a ball of confusion,
That's what the world is today, hey.
Fear in the air, tension everywhere,
Unemployment rising fast,
The Beatles new record's a gas,
And the only safe place to live,
Is on an Indian reservation,
The band played on.
Eve of destruction, tax deduction,
City inspectors, bill collectors, mod clothes in demand,
Population out of hand, suicide, too many bills,
Hippies moving to the hills,
People all over the world are shouting, "End the war!",
And the band played on.
Great Googamooga,
Can't you hear me talking to you,
Just a Ball Of Confusion, -ac
The Temptations sono un gruppo vocale statunitense formatosi a Detroit, Michigan, nel 1960. Considerati uno dei gruppi soul più influenti di tutti i tempi, hanno contribuito in modo significativo allo sviluppo del genere Motown Sound, una fusione di R and B, pop e rock psichedelico. Il loro stile distintivo è caratterizzato da armonie vocali impeccabili, coreografie sincronizzate e testi che esplorano temi come l'amore, la perdita e la speranza. Tra i brani più celebri dei Temptations figurano "My Girl", "Ain't Too Proud to Beg", "Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)" e "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone". Il gruppo ha venduto oltre 100 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, ottenendo numerosi premi e riconoscimenti, tra cui un posto nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nel 1989. La formazione originale comprendeva Otis Williams, Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams, Melvin Franklin e David Ruffin. Nel corso degli anni, la band ha visto diverse rotazioni di membri, ma Otis Williams è rimasto l'unico membro originale fino alla sua scomparsa nel 2023.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
