So Long Lyrics

This will persist
unless we resist
All the people come together like a hand makes a fist
Money lovers wanna tell us that our heart don’t exist
But look at how we move to the pulse in our wrist
Government officials go and break their own rules
So why are we surprised they teachin’ lies in our schools
The democracy we know has gone rotting like a cavity
Power to the people cause love has gravity
The same corporations that pollute the great lakes
Garner billion-dollar puppets While enjoying tax breaks
What do we do to despite them? wait for defeat?
Fuck that, we’re gonna throw them at the party in the streets.
Whoa
I heard some people want a revolution
(revolution)
I saw some people dealing retribution

If some of your saviors’ behaviors were wrong,
Could you change how you’ve lived for so long?
With the system they defended on
leaders in the pentagon
Must go into hiding Realizing they’ve depended on
Farmers for the food
Bees for the honey
Bankers and computers giving meaning to the money
Unavoidable collapse makes a lot of people skittish
Cause when it happens it’s survival of the fittest
In a physical sense, that’s why I find it scary
We can cut back on the needy but not the military
I see every super power, a tower, a bald eagle
Falling into the lake with the weight of its own ego
Every day after is gonna taste so savory
Cause working nine to five is just another form of slavery
 
Whoa
I heard some people want a revolution
(revolution)
I saw some people dealing retribution
What if some of your saviors’ behaviors were wrong?
Could you change how you’ve lived for so long?
They said free trade will be made, even out the teeter-totter
Of rich and poor, now they wanna sell off our water
It belongs to the people but we have to buy it back
And I buy it in a bottle cause’ it’s dirty in the tap
Free trade is becoming an economic cornerstone
Sued for living cause they’re patenting your chromosomes
A corporate pirate
Affecting the climate
Meetings are private
The public will buy it
The papers deny it
The people defy it
The fat lady singing “who are you to put me on a diet?”
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
I heard some people want a revolution
(revolution)
I saw some people dealing retribution
What if some of your saviors’ behaviors were wrong?
Could you change how you’ve lived for so long?
If you knew that your methods were wrong
Would you change how you’ve lived for so long?
If you knew that your methods were wrong
Could you change how you’ve lived for so long?
If you knew that your message was strong
Would you change how you’ve lived for so long?
If you knew that your methods were wrong,
So long
