Stevie Wonder – You Haven’t Done Nothin’ (featuring background vocals from The Jackson 5)

The song became his fourth number-one pop hit, his tenth number one soul hit, and was one of his angriest political statements aimed squarely at former President Richard Nixon.

This song features a thick clavinet track and an early appearance of the drum machine.

You Haven’t Done Nothin’ – Lyrics

We are amazed but not amused
By all the things you say that you’ll do
Though much concerned but not involved
With decisions that are made by you

But we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from wrong
‘Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven’t done nothing!

It’s not too cool to be ridiculed
But you brought this upon yourself
The world is tired of pacifiers
We want the truth and nothing else

And we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from wrong
‘Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven’t done nothing!

Jackson 5 join along with me say

Doo doo wop – eh eh eh
Doo doo wop – oh oh oh
Doo doo wop – mm mm mm
Doo doo wop – oh oh oh
Doo doo wop – mm mm mm
Doo doo wop

We would not care to wake up to the nightmare
That’s becoming real life
But when mislead who knows a person’s mind
Can turn as cold as ice (mm hmm)

Why do you keep on making us hear your song
Telling us how you are changing right from wrong
‘Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven’t done nothing!
Yeah

Jackson 5 sing along again say

Doo doo wop – nah nah nah
Doo doo wop – ooh
Doo doo wop – pom pom pom
Doo doo wop – sing it baby
Doo doo wop – bum bum bum
Doo doo wop – um bum pum
Doo doo wop – um um um
Sing it loud for your people say

Doo doo wop – stand up be counted, say
Doo doo wop – co co co
Doo doo wop – ooh
Doo doo wop – bum bum bum
Doo doo wop – ah hum
