Never been one to follow the process,
Never needed more lines in the sand,
Know what I want and I know what I don't want,
Don't need the angry elephant, don't need the jumpy jackass,
Got half a mind to start a whole new system, cash in on the one in place,
No talking heads, talking in circles,
Time to cut the tail off because everyone is tired of the chase.
We say...we say wake us when it's over,
We say...we say tell us when you're through,
For all the years that we've been waiting on all the promises you've made,
We say...we say we're ready for something new.
Somewhere in a dark, damp corner of America they're manufacturing a steady stream of cheap shots, misinformation, and an army of long, tall, pale-faced men of means,
All this talk of choosing - what choices do we get?
The lesser of two evils? Does such a creature still exist?
We say...we say wake us when it's over, (yeah)
We say...we say tell us when you're through, (yeah)
For all the years that we've been waiting on all the promises you've made,
We say...we say we're ready for something new.
This can't be all that you've got, man,
This can't be all that there is to this,
Wake us up when the bombs stop dropping,
Wake us up when the cons start walking,
Wake us up when the boat starts rocking,
Wake us up when you stop talking.
We say...we say wake us when it's over, (yeah)
We say...we say tell us when you're through, (oh)
For all the years that we've been waiting on all the promises you've made,
We say...we say we're ready for something new,
For all the years that we've been waiting on all the promises you've made,
We say...we say we're ready for something new.
