Somewhere between prayer and revolution   Between Jesus and Huey P. Newton   That?s where you find Jonny 5 shoot, shootin?   Water guns at the audience while you?re scootin'      You?re gluteous max due to the fact that he?s tootin'   On the horn, gonna warn you that I'm rootin'   For the other team in the culture wars   So, I stab the beast belly as the vulture snores      Yo Joe, let it blow with convulsive force   Till walls fall off their false supports   Till Jericho's aircraft carriers alter course   And all brave young Americans are called ashore      ?Cause we've already lost the war they keep wagin?   Splatterin? the streets in battles that keep ragin?   Bloodyin? each page in the story that we're studyin?   Each day the same just the names keep changin?      Sayin? the same things over again   Repeatin? the same slogans, we don't know where we've been   We've been all over the globe on our government's funds   Leavin? man, woman and child dead, bloody and numb      Sayin? the same things over again   Repeatin? the same slogans, we don't know where we've been   We?ve been overthrowin? leaders with legitimate views   Democratically elected but we didn't approve      How many times can the line divide?   How many wars to uphold some pride?   These fears uncontrolled just swoll the tide   Of blood in the streets while the people die      I?ma keep on tryin?, long as suffering's multiplyin   And why not?   These souls gettin? tossed and left out to rot   My back?s broad enough to help lift your cross      As long as you help with mine   The process of healin? will take some time   To see the pain in your face is the same as mine   It?s not a game or a race but the stakes is high      We maintain our mistakes for the sake of sides   As long as it takes, I?ll say it one more time   As long as it takes, I'll say it one more time   As long as it takes, I'll say it one more time      Sayin? the same things over again   Repeatin? the same slogans, we don't know where we've been   We've been all over the globe on our government's funds   Leavin? man, woman and child dead, bloody and numb      Sayin? the same things over again   Repeatin? the same slogans, we don't know where we've been   We?ve been overthrowin? leaders with legitimate views   Democratically elected but we didn't approve      (Same thing)   U.S. is not us   (Same thing)   And us is not we   (Same thing)   And we are not satisfied      (Same thing)   We?re tired of the same thing   (Same thing)   And we?re ready to make change   (Same thing)   Are we ready to make change?      We want money for health care and public welfare   Free Mumia and Leonard Peltier   Human needs, not corporate greed   Drop the debt and legalize weed      We say yes to grassroots organization   No to neoliberal globalization   Bring the troops back to the U.S.A.   And shut down Guantanamo Bay      Who let 'em overthrow Jacobo Arbenz?   Who let 'em overthrow Mohammad Mosaddeq?   Who let 'em assassinate Salvador Allende?   I didn't let them but they did it anyway      Who let 'em overthrow Kwame Nkrumah?   Who let 'em overthrow Aristide?   Who let 'em assassinate Oscar Romero?   I didn't let 'em but they did indeed      But don?t let them assassinate Hugo Chavez   Don?t let them assassinate Evo Morales   And bring back Martin, Malcolm, Medgar   Hampton, Schwerner, Goodman, Chaney      Sayin? the same things over again
