Song lyrics

[Intro: Prince]
Check it, one, two, uh!

[Verse 1: Prince]
I hitched a train between here and St. Paul,
Had no idea had to sleep in a pig stall. (Dirty, dirty)
Once I got home, the dirt that covered me,
Nothing like the disappointment that you would never see.

[Chorus: Prince]
Same page but a different book,
So much more in common if you'd only look.
There's only one God, (One God) whatever name He took,
Only matters when it comes to war,
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?

[Interlude: Prince]
Breathe...
Let it breathe....

[Verse 2: Prince]
New kids on the block
Trying to make they bed,
Here come another rock (Here come, y'all) upside their head, (Oops)
There go the missiles headed for the 'hood, (Oh Lord)
Trigger another car bomb did nobody no good.

[Chorus: Prince]
But we're on the same page but a different book,
So much more in common if you'd only look. (Only look)
There's only one God, (One God) whatever name He took, (Whatever)
Only matters when it comes to war,
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?

[Interlude: Prince]
Alright, listen y'all,
We're about to let this thing just groove,
Mm, move,
C'mon!

[Bridge: Shelby J.]
Chapter, verse, which came first?
Thinking too slow while they snatch your purse.
Faith, love, good deeds, practicing what you preach,
Between you and me, TV ain't reality.
That's right, I said it, it's said,
Buy this, cop that, all up in yo head,
Twenty-four hour news, that ain't right, huh,
Them suckers got you daydreaming at midnight! (Hey)
Huh!

[Verse 3: Prince]
Galatians Chapter 3 says,
The law was as good as dead,
Have faith in the life, death, and resurrection of the second Adam instead.
Would bring our souls' salvation,
If there's works in the faith we choose,
But if you're all alone throwing stones,
Who do you think's gonna lose, who do you think's gonna lose?

[Chorus: Prince]
Same page but a different book,
So much more in common, (Hey) if you'd only look. (Only look, y'all)
One God, (Yes, it is) whatever name He took, (Tell 'em)
Only matters when it comes to war,
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
Same page, different book!
Same page, different book!
Same page, different book!
Only matters when it comes to war,
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?

[Outro: Prince]
Same page, different book,
Watch out for the sinister minister,
They out there, y'all!
Same page, (Looka here) different book,
You better off chilling 'til the world ends, mm,
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
