Lost In The Shuffle

(album: Tonight You're Mine - 1980)

Don't wanna hear no more about the P.L.O.
Or the A.F.L. and the C.I.O.
Not the F.B.I. or the A.S.P.C.A.
You know I've had my fill of capitol hill
And the OPEC prices and the oil spills
I've had enough bad news to last me a year today

And I feel I'm lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it
I feel lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it no more
Oh no
No, no, no
Lost in the shuffle
Lost in the shuffle

Well I've got no time for the rise in crime
And plutonium leaks and mile-long lines
Of cars backed up just trying to buy some gasoline
Well I'm up to here with the cancerous rats
And the test tube babies and bureaucrats
Looks like the whole damn world's
Just coming apart at the seams

And I feel I'm lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it
I feel lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it no more
Oh no
No, no, no
Lost in the shuffle
Lost in the shuffle

You know you pay your taxes and you work all day
But you better watch out for the C.I.A.
'Cause they're putting together a dossier on you
And now I'm glad I'm living in the land of the free
Where I can speak my mind if I don't agree
But it seems like it really doesn't matter
What I say or do

'Cause I feel I'm lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it
And I feel lost in the shuffle
And I'm not gonna take it no more
Oh no
No, no, no
Lost in the shuffle
Lost in the shuffle
Lost in the shuffle
