[Verse 1]
I am just a number
And I hang on to what I got
You say what you want to
And I, I, I, I just try to stay alive
I put myself together
People say, "Get away, somebody will turn you in"
Life, life without surrender
Togetherness, ecstasy is what I need

[Pre-Chorus]
I can laugh, but I should cry
When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes

[Chorus]
I said walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there

[Verse 2]
She says she remembers
Time, long time ago
We belong together
And I, I, I, I turn up the radio
Lies, lies and propaganda
I gonna tell you what I need
Life, life without surrender
Togetherness, ecstasy is what I need
[Pre-Chorus]
I got yours and you got mine
And I can swim, but I should fly

[Chorus]
I think walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there

[Bridge]
Ain't no crime to believe
I took my money, I bet my life
What you see is what you get
But it sure ain't what we need
Hey!

[Organ Solo]

[Chorus]
Walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down, talk it down
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down, talk it down (Hey, hey, hey)
Oh
Sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there
