WHO'LL DROP THE FLAG
TIME'S UP, BANKERS MAKING THE CALL,
MANIC MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE CLIMBING THE WALL,
TRYING TO GET THEMSELVES ON TOP OF IT ALL,
YOU CAN BE SURE HALF OF THEM ARE GOING TO FALL.
BIG BOSSES SITTIN', INCREASING THE COSTS,
BLUE COLLAR PEOPLE ABSORBING THE LOSS,
GOVERNMENTS LAYING BACK COLLECTING MOSS,
THE POOR AND THE OLD GETTING NAILED TO THE CROSS.
PLASTIC CREDIT CARDS, BREAKING FINGER NAILS,
BILLS PILING UP EVERYDAY IN THE MAIL,
TRYING FOR SUCCESS, ALWAYS SEEM TO FAIL,
NO WONDER SO MANY END UP IN JAIL.
WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAKE IT ALL WORTH WHILE?
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO FIND A SINCERE SMILE?
WHO'S GOING TO TRY TO PUT IT ALL IN PLACE?
WHO'LL DROP THE FLAG AT THE END OF THIS RACE?
BIG BOSSES SITTIN', BREAKING FINGER NAILS.
BLUE COLLAR PEOPLE, AFRAID TO OPEN THE MAIL.
GOVERNMENTS TALKIN’, YET EVERY TIME THEY FAIL.
THE POOR AND THE OLD, ENDING UP IN JAIL.
WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAKE IT ALL WORTH WHILE?
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO FIND A SINCERE SMILE?
WHO'S GOING TO TRY TO PUT IT ALL IN PLACE?
WHO'LL DROP THE FLAG AT THE END OF THIS RACE?
WHAT CAN WE DO? TO MAKE IT ALL WORTH WHILE
WHAT WILL IT TAKE? TO FIND A SINCERE SMILE
WHO'S GOING TO TRY? TO PUT IT ALL IN PLACE
WHO'LL DROP THE FLAG AT THE END OF THIS RACE?
