Boogie with your children 
In peace and love 
Sing Marvin Gaye 
To the Lord above 
Souls that never wear 
Are shoes that last forever 
I'm yelling at my children 
The straightjacket express 
I need to find an atom of love 
Inside this mess 
I, I want to groove 
Selling refrigeration 
From door to door 
Called the signifying monkey 
About the killing floor 
Grooving in a state of mind 
Can you spare a dime? 
Boogie with your children 
In peace and love 
Sing Marvin Gaye 
To the Lord above 
I do believe that you all don't hear me 
Grooving in a state of mind 
Brother can you spare a dime? 
Talking down the street 
I'm walking in my sleep 
Boogie with your children 
Why don't you boogie with your children baby? 
Boogie with your children In peace and love 
Sing Marvin Gaye to the lord above 
High high in the sky 
You feet won't feel far from the ground 
Well I wait by the signal 
Where the traffic go right 
You think I'm waiting for a quarter 
And you might be right 
Well I watch 'em brake and accelerate 
Then I watch 'em smash into the interstate 
I do believe that you don't hear me 
Boogie with your children In peace and love 
Sing Marvin Gaye to the Lord above
