lyrics

Why Won’t You Listen?

You just sit there watching the world go around
Every time that you were needed you just sat back down
Complacent, bored within the life that you live
Always seem to get what you want but you never want to give

Why won’t You Listen? (Why did you wait so long?)
Keep telling you times are tough
You just sit and stare at the Wall (like a broke dick dog)
Haven’t You had Enough?

Someone’s calling for action almost everyday
But you find it so easy to look the other way
Take all this corruption in the world with a grain of salt
Just accept it as fact because it’s not your fault

(CHORUS)

What’s your excuse this time, when you’re nowhere in sight
Maybe you seem to think that it’s not your fight
Keep waiting for you to take some kind of stand
Never been a better time for you to do all that You Can!

(CHORUS)
