lyrics

another tragedy - another killing spree
another holocaust - you saw it on TV
another starving child - another bomb attack
another suicide - a body in a sack
you're fed evil deeds - forced to drink up the fear
happy thoughts ain't allowed in here
they keep you in place - let you barely go through
but i got a question - a question for you

what have you done for the world today
stuck in your ordinary ego way
what have you done for the world today
are you shutting your blinds with nothing to say
what have you done for the world today
just praying the horror will go away
or are you up on your feet active and loud
stompin' the streets - waking the crowd

they tell you the lies - stealin' your faith
killin' the love - fills you with hate
they want you to kneel - don't want you to feel
non-empathic crowd - the only one allowed
you're fed evil deeds - forced to drink up the fear
happy thoughts ain't allowed in here
they keep you in place - let you barely go through
but i got a question - a question for you

what have you done for the world today
stuck in your ordinary ego way
what have you done for the world today
are you shutting your blinds with nothing to say
what have you done for the world today
just praying the horror will go away
or are you up on your feet active and loud
stompin' the street - waking the crowd

waking the crowd
stomping the street
waking the crowd
waking the crowd
waking the crowd
