Youth of America is living in the jungle
                                              F5
Fighting for survival with the wrong place to go
D
Youth of America the pressure's all around
                                                          F5
The walls are coming down the walls are crumbling down on you
G             Bb           F5
It is time we rectify this now
      Eb             Bb
We've got to feel it now
Eb             Bb   F    D
Got to feel it now, now, now...

They attack you from the right side - down the left side
Down the middle 'til you don't know who you are
Stay around until you don't really matter
They'll try to put you six feet under the ground

It is time we rectify this now
We've got to save it now
Got to save it now, now, now...

[The rich get richer and the poorer get poorer ]
[Now there's no place left to go ]
[Got to get off of this rot...'cause I don't want to be born here again... ]
[Do you want to be born here again? ]
[This just ain't no existence... ]
[Beware of those guys in disguise... ]
[We're living in the jungle...fighting for survival... ]
[Can't wait much longer... ]

Hurry...

It is time we rectify this now
We've got to heal it now
Got to heal it now, now, now...
