Lyrics

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 its gonna change, my friend
Is anybodys guess, so im
Watchin and I'm waitin
Hopin for the best
Even think Ill 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 the best
Even think Ill 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
