How Much Longer
The party on the left is the party on the right
If there ain't no choice, then there ain't no fight
The pride of the west is the shame of the east
There's too much ego and not enough to eat
They read between the words, they read between the lines
They see everything, but they can't see that they're blind
You talk about this and they talk about that
But talk is talk and facts are facts
Sit down, sit up, it's your situation
What we want is participation
Sit down, sit up, it's your situation
What we need is participation
Get behind me
Come on, get behind me
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
The leaders of the world should hide their heads in shame
From cabinet to cabaret, it's the price of fame
There's pollution in the air, pollution in our minds
But what we all want is to get some piece of mind
We're stuck to our TVs, we're glued to our seats
We like to watch the news 'cause we're addict for repeats
So put your money where your mouth is put your fingers in the sockets
Wipe that smile off your face and take your hands out your pockets
Sit down, sit up, it's your situation
What we want is participation
Sit down, sit up, it's your situation
What we need is participation
Get behind me
Come on, get, get, get behind me
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
It don't matter
No, it don't matter to me
But if no one cares then I despair
We will drown in our apathy
Say what you will
And say what you like
But the question is who will stand
Stand and take the blame
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must we wait
For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
