Verse 1
Me and all my f
riends we're
all misunders
tood
They s
ay we stand for
nothing and there's no w
ay we ever c
ould
Now we s
ee everything that's
going wrong
With the w
orld and those who l
ead it
We just f
eel like we don't h
ave the means to r
ise above and b
eat it
Chorus
So we k
eep waiting (w
aiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
We keep on wa
iting (w
aiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
It's h
ard to beat the
system when we're s
tanding at a d
istance
So we keep w
aiting (
waiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
Verse 2
Now
if we had the
power to bring our n
eighbors home from w
ar
They would have n
ever missed a C
hristmas no more r
ibbons on their d
oor
And when you tr
ust your tele
vision what you g
et is what you
got
'Cause when they
own the infor
mation, oh they can
bend it all they
want
Chorus
That's why we're wa
iting (w
aiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
We keep on w
aiting (w
aiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
It's n
ot that we don't
care, we just know that the
fight ain't f
air
So we keep on w
aiting (w
aiting) waiting on the w
orld to ch
ange
