through the dust bowl
through the debt
grandma was a suffragette
blacklisted for her publication
blacklisted for my generation
go go go
raise your hands
raise your hands high
don`t take a seat
don`t stand aside
this time
don`t assume anything
just go go go
feed the fire
and fan the flame
i know you kids can stand the rain
i know the kids are still upsetters
`cause rock is cool but the struggle is better
go go go
and raise your hands
raise your hands high
don`t take a seat
don`t stand aside
this time
don`t assume anything
i said this time
now don`t assume anything
just go
the truth is i was afraid
i felt inferior
i felt i excelled in competing with others and i knew instantly that these
people were not competing at all, that they were acting in a strange, powerful
trance of movement together
and i was filled with longing to act with them and with the fear that i could
not
did they tell you it was set it stone
that you`d end up alone
use your years to psyche you out
you`re too old to care
you`re too young to count
did they tell you, you would come undone
when you try to touch the sun
undermine the underground
you`re too old to care
you`re too young to count
i said go go go
i said this time
don`t assume anything
just go go go
go go go
go go go
