Well I'm about to get sick

From watchin' my TV

Been checkin' out the news

Till my eyeballs fail to see

I mean to say that every day

Is just another rotten mess

And when it's gonna change, my friend

Is anybody's guess, so I'm

Watchin' and I'm waitin'

Hopin' for the best

Even think I'll go to prayin'

Every time I hear 'em sayin'

There's no way to delay

That trouble comin' every day

No way to delay the trouble

Comin' every day

Wednesday I watched the riot

Seen the cops out on the street

Watched 'em throwin' rocks & stuff & chokin'

In the heat

Listen to reports

About the whisky passin' 'round

Seen the smoke & fire

And the market burnin' down

Watched while everybody

On his street would take a turn

To stomp & smash & bash & crash & slash &

bust & burn

And I'm

Watchin' and I'm waitin'

Hopin' for

Even think I'll go to prayin'

Every time I hear 'em sayin' that there's

No way to delay

That trouble comin' every day

No way to delay

That trouble comin' every day
