Someone stuck me on the losing side 
Everything is someone else's fault 
We're not good enough for me to care 
And the mantra is "Too much effort, there's never time" 
And your sole solution is a high pitched whine 
It's not red-hot coals, it's not busted glass 
There's no 
Mau-Maus after your sweet pink ass 
So if not now when, if not now when, if not now when? 
If not you, who then? 
No one wants to be the first to fail 
I won't play unless you guard my back 
And the mantra is "Change the system, and please arrange it To change some way that I feel no change" 
It's not flaming necklaces, household spies 
There's no market bombings, no bullets fly 
Bosnia, Bosnia 
Try spelling "Herzegovina" 
Where money talks and bullshit walks 
The bullet or the ballet box 
Babylon, oh 
Babylon We babble on in 
Babylon The 
TV blows, the music sucks 
The bullet or the ballot box 
We're not good enough for me to care 
And the mantra is "Leave the gun on the table loaded The first to grab it's as good as voted in"
