10. "Compared To What" by Les McCann
" Another night, a night of love
Hangin' on to push and shove
Possession is the mo-to-va-tion that is
Hangin' up the goddam nation
Looks like we always end up in a rut
Tryin' to make it real
Compared to what!

"The president he's got his war
Folks don't know just what it's for
Nobody gives us rhyme or reason
Have one doubt they call it treason

Les McCann wrote this one and it is the best if you can get the live recording from Montroux Switzerland - Swiss Movement. Eddie Harris on trumpet.
Anyone know more of the lyrics.
