Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing
There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
Just feel we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we have the power
To keep our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
When you trust your televisions
What you get is what you got
And the only information
Oh, they can bend it all they want

That's why we're waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting) yeah
Waiting on the world to change

It's not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change, yeah
Oh, we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to be persistent
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting, ooh
Waiting on the world to change

We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting) yeah
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to be persistent
When we're standing at a distance
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world, to change
