Oo they don't hear us

Read us bedtime stories from their textbooks

Oo try to reign us in

Blind to our intelligence



Standardization of the masses

Give us a number fail or pass us

Education, manipulation

Decide our fate but never ask us



We're about to boil over

You can't keep us down forever

We got too big for the cage, you locked us up in

Let's mark this down as the day, that we started something

So open the gate, open the gate cause when we

Finally escape, finally escape we'll be

Tearing through the streets

Running with the wild things



(Oo oo oo ooo ooo)



Hey why you waiting

Quit carving notches to count the days 'Cause they're losing power

See 'em growing weaker by the hour

We're about to boil over



You can't keep us down forever

We got too big for the cage, you locked us up in

Let's mark this down as the day, that we started something

So open the gate, open the gate cause when we

Finally escape, finally escape we'll be

Tearing through the streets

Running with the wild things

Standardization of the masses



Give us a number fail or pass us

Standardization of the masses

Give us a number fail or pass us

Education, manipulation

decide our fate but never ask us

Education, manipulation

Decide our fate but never ask us

Never ask us, never ask us

We got too big for the cage, you locked us up in

Let's mark this down as the day, that we started something

So open the gate, open the gate cause when we

Finally escape, finally escape we'll be

Tearing through the streets

Running with the wild things

(ooo ooo)
