[Verse 1]
You got the CBS...!
And the ABC...!
You got Time and Newsweek!
Well, they're the same to me!
Now don't you wanna get right with me?
(Puzzling Evidence)
I hope you get ev'rything you need
(Puzzling Evidence)
[Chorus 1]
Puzzling Evidence[x3]
Done hardened in your heart

Hardened in your heart
Alright!
Now I am the gun
And you are the bullet
I got the power and glory!
(Puzzling)
And the money to buy it!

Got your Gulf and Western and your MasterCard
(Puzzling Evidence)
Got what you wanted and you lost what you had

See the little children! (Puzzlin')
And the family! (Puzzlin')
Gonna live together! (Puzzlin')
Take them home with me! (Puzzlin')
Well I hope you're happy with what you've made
(Puzzling Evidence)
In the land of the free and the home of the brave

Puzzling (sometimes) evidence
Done hardened in your heart
Hardened in your heart
[Chorus 2]
Huh...huh...huh...huh...huh...huh...huh
I'm puzzling (Huh!)
Puzzling (Huh!)[x2]
P-P-P-Puzzlin'! (Huh!)
