Carole King
A Quiet Place to Live
[Verse 1]
All I want is a quiet place to live
Where I can enjoy the fruits of my labor
Read the paper
And not have to cry out loud

[Verse 2]
In my mind I can see it crystal clear
Sharing my dreams with the people around me
Now they surround me
And I'm just a part of the crowd

[Bridge]
What will become of us?
What about the children?
What will they do to us next time around?
What will the answer be?
What will it mean to me?
When are they gonna see we're underground?
Here underground

[Verse 3]
And all I want is a quiet place to live
Where I can be free in a world of my making
Instead of taking
What they decided to give
[Outro]
I wouldn't want what they have—no
If I could only find
A quiet place to live
