It's time to shout out loud

(Stand up, stand up, stand up)
But they do crimes they don't admit
Your pesticides commit homicides
They act so intellectual
And they race until they're dead
And they race until they're dead
Moving with the feet
But your souls, they seem to be done for
Moving with the feet
Why don't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
It's time to start a movement
We need action in the street
Your bodies, they have waged wars
And there's no time like right now
I've heard it's a rat race
Why don't you stand up, stand up?
It's time to get up, get up, get up
We need action in the street
Electrocute and cut them up
It's time to start a fight
But all they see is death
It's time to start a movement
Why do they all play God
Who said that is your job?
Why don't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Slit their throats until they bled
Watch them take their last breath
It's time to get up, get up, get up
Now it's time to start a fight
So what gives them the right
Why don't you stand up, stand up?
Slit their throats until they bled
(What gives them the right?)
I've heard it's a rat race
But I've held my breath so many times
It's time to start a fight
But all I hear is shit
It's time to start a fight
Why don't you stand up, stand up, stand up?
Songwriter: John Feldmann
And there's no time like right now
When I'm playing for the tortured souls
It's time to get up, get up, get up
Why don't you stand up, stand up?
It's time to get up, get up, get up
I see their lips move
To take your life from you?
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to get up, get up, get up
(Get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
It's time to get up, get up, get up
Monkey see, monkey do
