I flip the switch on my laser video |
|
And there's the man staring back at me |
|
He starts to speak in a voice so righteous |
|
About the sins of society |
|
He's got answers to all my problems |
|
Says he'll decide what i should hear and see |
|
I try to change to another station |
|
But all i get is more of his morality |
|
And morality, yeah |
|
But i see the kids of a new generation |
|
And they won't stand for this mind control |
|
They're gonna change this world we live in |
|
They're gonna bring back the rock and roll |
|
So if i can, i'm gonna break from this prison |
|
Gonna get out and join in the fight |
|
Take a chance on what i believe in |
|
Win or lose, i know it's right |
|
'cause it's high time |
|
For us to start a revolution |
|
High time |
|
Just like an a-bomb explosion |
|
High time |
|
It ain't the music that's in question |
|
High time |
|
It's more the freedom of expression |
|
Change is comin' |
|
Mind police are comin' |
|
We're on the move |
|
The old world is crumblin' |
|
A new day's comin' |
|
Tell your friends and relations |
|
We're on the move |
|
We're gonna start a rockin' nation |
|
