Sittin' up in my window sill
Lookin' all over the city still
Thinking, drinking it all in
It's so crazy
Like little bugs
People in a rush
Never enough to just
Take a few steps back and
Not be crazy, so crazy
I'm chillin' atop this perch
I continue my search to find
Just where I fit
Just where I belong
I'm feeling crazy
So many paths
So many ways to go
Many ways to show
All this love I got
All I got is love, love
Shelter, I can't get no shelter, ya
From this there's no shelter, ya
Ha ha ha ha shelter
Never enough, there's no shelter
Standing down from my window now
Walkin' all over the city still
Thinking, sinking it all in
It's so crazy
Well there's signs
Pointing all over the place
Up and down, left to right
And I'm feeling crazy, so crazy
Well these streets are like riddles
I'm stuck in the middle
With a little bit of freedom
And a whole lotta crazy
So many paths
So many ways to go
Many ways to show
All this love I got
All I got is love, love
Shelter, I can't get no shelter, ya
Never enough, no
Never enough no shelter, ya
Ha ha ha ha shelter
Papa told me
All you need is
A whole lot of love
And a little bit of greed
Papa told me
All you need is
A whole lot of love
And a little bit of greed
Papa told me
All you need is
A whole lot of love
And a little bit of greed
Papa told me
All you need is
A whole lot of love
And a little bit of greed
On top of this metropolis, I'm hangin' by a thread
My body's dying slow, gimme shelter for my head
People screamin 'more' but I give 'em less instead
Cause goin' with the flow got a brotha feelin' dead
Showin' up in blue when everybody's wearin' red
I'm cuttin off my hair and everybody's growin' dreads
Just to paint a picture, don't sit down on what I said
Let it marinate the moment that you wake up out of bed
Gimme
Shelter, I can't get no shelter, ya
From this, no from this there's no shelter, ya
Ha ha ha ha shelter
Never enough, there's no shelter
