I am sick and tired of the way you've let things slide

Just because we're young doesn't mean we can't decide 

If you think that we ain't got a thought inside our heads 

I'm telling you right now that you better think again 



Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves 

It's time to show us some concern 

I'm sick of your goddamned apathy 

It's time to stand up and make yourself three 



You have held us back and pushed us down for all our lives 

When it comes to running things you've done a half-assed job 

It is time that you learned it's what you do not what you say 

And if you refuse to learn we're gonna make you pay 



Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves 

It's time to show us some concern 

I'm sick of your goddamned apathy 

It's time to stand up and make yourself three 



Viet-Nam and Lebanon, other people's wars 

I won't fight unless it's right, corporate wars no-more 

I believe this country's worth my life to help defend 

I won't fight to help keep Dow Jones out of the red 



I am sick and tired of the way you've let things slide 

Just because we're young doesn't mean we can't decide 

If you think that we ain't got a thought inside our heads 

I'm telling you right now that you better think again 



Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves 

It's time to show us some concern 

I'm sick of your goddamned apathy 

It's time to stand up and make yourself three
