Why is it difficult to get things done | |
In the age of computers and communication? | |
The powers that be say they can't keep a hold | |
Of a world that is escalating out of control | |
Out on the street there's a war going on | |
And everything is going wild | |
But a bureaucrat says, "We've lost your fileSo we'll put you on hold for a while" | |
Hey man, call the | |
D.A.Call the | |
National Guard, call the president | |
Call anyone in the land of the free' | |
Cause they ain't gonna listen to me | |
Call the P. | |
D., the emergency ‘vacuation | |
The Dalai | |
Lama, Kofi | |
AnnanAnd they ain't gonna listen to me | |
The voice on the phone says, ' | |
We'll get right back' | |
But they say all the computers are down | |
And the chief prosecutor had to go out of town | |
No one listen, nobody listens, no one listens to me | |
Now we've got you in the system | |
Somebody's gonna get back to you | |
Then in a few more years we'll give your case a review | |
No one listen, nobody listens, they ain't gonna listen to me | |
Hey man, call the | |
Government | |
Write to City | |
Hall, United | |
NationsTell the preacher at the missionary' | |
Cause they ain't gonna listen to me | |
Blame the hurricane, blame the drug trade, the economy | |
Blame the ghettos in the land of the free' | |
Cause they ain't gonna listen to me | |
They ain't gonna listen to me | |
Everybody knows it's a cryin' shame | |
How the little guy gets kicked around | |
Everybody | |
I talk to agrees that if you wanna get heard | |
It's connections that count | |
I was minding my business | |
When a bad situation occurred, shock, horror and fear | |
Now the outcome is still unclear | |
Hey man, I am the innocent party here | |
They ain't gonna listen to me | |
Tell the National | |
GuardTell the talk show on the | |
TVTell the winos in the old man bar‘ | |
Cause they ain't gonna listen to me | |
Now I'm stuck here in their system | |
They ain't gonna listen, nobody listens | |
They ain't gonna listen to me |
