I thought I'd begun, to see a change
But the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Back stabbing and name calling, the trade marks of your act
You talk and talk of unity, but divide with your attacks.

I'd like to see a change, I'd like to see a change
I'd like to see a change, but I'm too busy...
Tearing everyone down... (x2)

All us kids, we try to make a change
Some kids start a band,
Others start a zine.
You, no matter what your path
You throw a curve in what could be achieved,
Then give up and move onto some other thing.

I'd like to see a change, I'd like to see a change
I'd like to see a change, but I'm too busy...
Tearing everyone down... (x2)

Take a break, from your fights.
Try to open up your mind tonight
When you feel, that's complete,
Then we can tackle this society!
You may not like everything in life i do...
But that doesn't mean,
I'm not trying to change the same problems as you

I'd like to see a change, I'd like to see a change
I'd like to see a change, but I'm too busy...
Tearing everyone down... (x2)
