hey, sit down and listen and they'll tell you when you're wrong,

 C#           G#            D#                A#
eradicate but vindicate as "progress" creeps along,

C#           G#              D#               F
puritan work ethic maintains its subconscious edge,

   C#            D#                  F
as old glory maintains your consciousness

there's a loser in the house and a puppet on a stool,

      C#             G#         D#               A#
and a crowded way of life and a black reflecting pool,

    C#            G#       D#           F
and as the people bend the moral fabric dies,

     C#               D#                 F#
then country can't pretend to ignore its people's cries

you are the volition,

you are jurisdiction

and I make a difference too
