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 |
