Sitting in the classroom
Waiting for the teacher's hand
To lead us in the Pledge of Allegience
Make us understand
Would we rather kick the legs
Out of the chair and watch her fall?
'Cause there's no more time for her
To make the call
So we're gonna break down all the desks
Tear down the maps
And storm down the halls
'Cause it doesn't mean a thing to us at all
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting for the change
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting all the same
♪
I'm riding down the interstate
Moving faster, if I can
I'm trying not to instigate
Any problems with The Man
But they'll probably find a way
To say to me, "You cannot move"
So what's this guy gonna try to prove?
Better not make a sudden movement
Just be brute and don't act dumb
While he's looking down the sides of his gun
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting for the change
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting all the same
♪
You're gonna find them in your neighborhood
You're gonna find them in your shed
They're gon' find you shooken up with fear
Hiding underneath your bed
But you'd rather they be gone for long forever
Lights and sound
If they never had existed
That'd be fine
But you gotta live with the regret
Forget, for now, at least is fine
'Cause they'll find a place
For you on down the line
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting for the change
I don't want to wait
Waiting for it, waiting all the same
