Tried of it All Tired of it Now A need to Survive Won't help us Out Peace on Earth Some sort of Joke What they feed Us Making us Choke This is the Bed In which we Lay Headboard a Tombstone Societies Grave WHY DO THE MEN WE HIRED TO SERVE SHAKE OUR HANDS AND GIVE US THEIR WORD ONLY THEN TO GIVE IT ALL TO THE ONES WHO GREASE THEIR PALMS WHY HAVE WE NOT OUR LESSON LEARNED YEARS OF GOVERNMENTS UNCONCERN LONG AGO THEY TURNED THEIR BACK LEAVING US NO MORE THAN WHAT WE LACK Time we stood Up In the thick of it All Do it Ourselves Make our own Calls That's the way that It Was meant to Be Government under Control With the people set Free
