lyrics

The filthy system needs you as it’s pawn, there’s something must be done
Smash consumerism till it’s dead and gone
You know a change has got to come
The rich get richer in the game of mates, the poor keep getting none
But now their lousy plan is going to detonate
You know a change is going to come

Voodoo economics and the bottom line are treating nature with contempt
Nothing grows forever in a finite world and if you’re disrespecting Gaia then she’s going to fight back

The kids are alright they’ve got open minds, the kids will overcome
Teachers give them knowledge, give them art and science
You know a change has got to come

They say the money’s going to trickle down but they keep turning off the tap
They keep the masses stupid with their crap TV but now the people are awakening and they’re going to fight back

The system’s broken in the first degree, the time for words is done
Time to shake some action cos it’s guaranteed
You know a change has got to come
It won’t be quick it’s going to take a fight
But it just could be fun
Saving all our future’s from a horrible plight
You know a change is going to come

The battle lines have been drawn, you know a change has got to come
The future’s ours to be won, you know a change has got to come
