They used those fancy words to confuse your mind
But since I never did no elocution rhymes
Made me think that everything they said was fine
So I nod and wink and smile
I said I understood
I went all the way
Giving up myself to their philosophy
Now that things have changed
I make my mind up for myself
I look back on all those words
There's little meaning in their sound
They make me mad
They make me mad

Look beyond people
Untie your hands
You're living in a time of shifting sands
Fights are happening in other lands
Now I shake my head and frown
I'm getting off my knees
I'm gonna teach myself
A new philosophy
Have things really changed?
Do I make my mind up for myself?
I look back on all those words
There's little meaning in their sound
They make me mad
They make me mad
Mindless confusion
Makes me mad
