Smoke stacks reach the sky As talk of revolution heats the air In every city street In every state The truth stands all too clear
The kids are sick and tired of the news today Sick and tired of all the lies
We want the truth It isn't going to be no paradise Forget the claims Oh no We need to take the world back now We need to take control right now
