How can you stand there, when all around you is a lie?

How can you stand there, and not wonder why

What right to complain when so many much worse off than you

How can you stand there, and just watch them do it?



How can you stand there, come walk with me that extra mile

How can you stand there, and not raise a smile?

You must be paralyzed, so little time, so much to do

And soon you'll realize that it's down to you



'Cos it's not over till you hit the top, it's not over till you have to

stop

It's not over while we have a chance

No it's not over, so come on and dance now



How can you stand there, how can you stand there

How can you stand there, how can you stand there? Lord!



Warning signs all around this town

Something's up, something's coming down

Made aware by the plagues and quakes

We're wound up tight like it's gonna break now

The drums are thumping, blood is pumping

Hands on the clock getting ready to stop

tires screaming, engine smoking, look out driver the Earth is choking



And how can you stand there, how can you stand

How can you stand there, how can you stand there?, Lord!



It's not over, no no, it's not over, no no no

No it's not over, hell no, no it's not over

No it's not over till you hit the top, it's not over till you have to stop

It's not over while we have a chance

It's not over, so come on and dance now, and



How can you stand there, how can you stand there

How can you stand there, how can you stand there?

Amandla!
