look around the country, an abundance you'll find

of mediocre minds

sift through the fodder as sane justice declines

because of mediocre minds

shrouded under cover, the most flamboyant guise

hides a mediocre mind

you got yours but you can never bend mine

with your mediocre minds



when they cry foul you had better watch out

because you never know which aptitude they're griping about

don't act too smart for their stenoscopic ways

you'll be discarded away



reason's not to be what the privileged define

with their mediocre minds

so many sighted people are so helplessly blind

from their mediocre minds



if you want attention then you'll be asked to bend

but the surest insurrection is enlightenment

then you can live outside inharmoniously

without friends and enemy



they wanna keep me locked away

cuz I've an overactive brain



leaders, presidents and the nightly news guys

cater to mediocre minds

reason's not to be what the privileged define

with their mediocre minds

you got yours but you can never bend mine

with your mediocre minds

the only natural thing that I really despise

are the mediocre minds

mediocre minds! (2x)
