You sit on the corner and you drink your beer
You say you're going to change the world, the revolution's here
But the rich laugh at you while you think you're so smart
Because the whole world to you is Tompkins Square Park
No more, we rise, we fight, never give in
You say you're politically correct and you're so great
But morals alone won't bring down the state
It takes deeds not words to make the system fall
Instead of burning flags go burn City Hall
You say you're going to change the world, the revolution's here
But the rich laugh at you while you think you're so smart
Because the whole world to you is Tompkins Square Park
No more, we rise, we fight, never give in
You say you're politically correct and you're so great
But morals alone won't bring down the state
It takes deeds not words to make the system fall
Instead of burning flags go burn City Hall
