[Lyrics]
(Intro)
(1) Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could
(1) Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
(2a) So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
(2b) It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
(1) Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
(1) And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
(2a) That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
(2b) It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
(3)
(Solo)
(2a) And we're still waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
(2b) One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
(4) No, we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
