About New Radicals

The New Radicals were an alternative rock/power pop band that formed in Los Angeles, California in 1997, being centered around front-man Gregg Alexander, who wrote and produced all of their songs. They released only one album, 1998’s ‘Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too’, a critically acclaimed pop rock album heavily influenced by classic rock and soul of the 60s and 70s that contained— amongst radio-friendly pop tracks and love songs— strong criticism of corporate America and modern culture.

Lyrics for You Get What You Give by New Radicals:

Wake up kids
We’ve got the dreamers disease
Age 14
They got you down on your knees
So polite
You’re busy still saying please

Frienemies
Who when you’re down ain’t your friend
Every night
We smash their Mercedes-Benz
First we run
And then we laugh ’til we cry

But when the night is falling
You cannot find the light
You feel your dreams are dying
Hold tight

You’ve got the music in you
Don’t let go
You’ve got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don’t give up
You’ve got a reason to live
Can’t forget
We only get what we give

Four a.m.
We ran a miracle mile
We’re flat broke
But hey we do it in style
The bad rich
God’s flying in for your trial

But when the night is falling
You cannot find a friend
You feel your tree is breaking
Just bend

You’ve got the music in you
Don’t let go
You’ve got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don’t give up
You’ve got a reason to live
Can’t forget
We only get what we give

This whole damn world can fall apart
You’ll be okay, follow your heart
You’re in harm’s way, I’m right behind
Now say you’re mine

You’ve got the music in you
Don’t let go
You’ve got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don’t give up
You’ve got a reason to live
Can’t forget
We only get what we give
Don’t let go
I feel the music in you

Fly high
What’s real can’t die

You only get what you give
You’re gonna get what you give
Don’t give up
Just don’t be afraid to leave

Health insurance rip off lying
FDA big bankers buying
Fake computer crashes dining
Cloning while they’re multiplying
Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson
Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson
You’re all fakes run to your mansions
Come around we’ll kick your asses

Don’t let go
One dance left
Don’t give up
Can’t forget
Don’t let go
