The Monkees Lyrics
"Kicks"

You thought you found the answer on that magic carpet ride last night
But, when you wake up in the morning, the world still gets you uptight
Well, there's nothing that you ain't tried to fill the emptiness inside
But, when you come back down, you still ain't feeling right

And it seems like kicks just keep getting harder to find
All your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, you'd better get straight
But, not with kicks, you just need help now

You think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise
But, it ain't happened yet, so now you'd better think twice
Don't you see, no matter what you do, you'll never run away from you
If you keep on running, you'll have to pay the price

Don't it seem like, kicks just keep getting harder to find
All your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, you'd better get straight
But, not with kicks

To help you face the world each day
That road goes nowhere
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way

Kicks just keep getting harder to find
(You don't need kicks, now)
And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind
(You just need help, now)
Before you find out it's too late, you'd better get straight
(You'd better, you'd better, you'd better)

Kicks just keep getting harder to find
(You don't need kicks, now)
And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind
(You just need help, now)
Before you find out it's too late, you'd better get straight
(You'd better, you'd better, you'd better)

Kicks just keep getting harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, you'd better get straight

Kicks just keep getting harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringing you
