Get Up

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