one day...

me and all my friends

we're all misunderstood

they say we stand for nothing

there's no way we ever could

now we see everything is going wrong

with the world and those who lead it

we just feel like we don't have the means

to rise above and beat it

so we keep waiting

waiting on the world to change

we keep on waiting

waiting on the world to change

its hard to be persistant

when we're standing at a distance

wo we keep waiting

waiting on the world to change

well if we had the power

to bring our neighbors home from war

they would've never missed a Christmas

no more ribbons on the door

when you trust your television

what you get is what you got

'cause when when they own the information

oh, they can bend it all they want

so while we're waiting

waiting on the world to change

we keep on waiting

waiting on the world to change

it's not that we don't care

we just know that the fight ain't fair

so we keep waiting

waiting on the world to change

one day our generation

is gonna rule the population

so we keep on waiting...
