- IT BURNS ME UP (Brian Auger)

frosty friday on the dark side of midnight 
i been looking at what's going down 
got to thinking what a strange world we live in 
can't believe the things i see all around 

how can it be, that in this land of plenty 
little children have to go without 
lots of promises that don't amount to nothing 
i can't believe that they could be left out 

well it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up-a 
well it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up 

cross the world we see our brothers killing brothers 
all in the name of their lord above 
don't they know that there is only one religion 
brother sister, that religion is love 

that's why it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up-a 
well it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up
 
don't you know there's only one class of people 
and that class is called humanity 
seems to me that with a little loving kindness 
we'll make a better world and set people free 

and it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up-a 
oh well it burns me up-a 
I said it burns me up
