Lyrics for Shower the People
You can play the game You can act out the part Though you know It wasn't written for you Tell me how can you stand there With your broken heart Ashamed to playin' a fool? One thing can be to another It doesn't take any sacrifice Oh, Father and Mother And sister and brother If it feels nice Don't think twice Just shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Things are gonna work out fine If you only will Do as I say Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Things are gonna be much better If you only will You can run but you cannot hide This is widely known Now what you plan to do with your foolish pride When you're all by yourself alone Once you tell somebody The way that you feel You can feel it beginning to ease I think it's true what they say About the squeaky wheel Always getting the grease Better to Shower the people you love with love Yes and show them the way that you feel I know things are gonna be just fine If you only will, what I like to do to you Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Things are gonna be much better, if you only will Shower the people you love with love Show them the way you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love Show them the way that you feel Shower the people you love with love
