lyrics

It's not 1969 anymore
It's not 1978 anymore
We can't make excuses anymore
My world's on fire, how's yours?
And I fall down
Those goddamn yuppies got their way

And here we go
We march to the edge
We stand over the fires of the earth
And this is not the real end
So here we go here we go here we go
Come on now

We've been exploited
And that hasn't changed
And what we aim for
Is our ancestors to feel ashamed

And here we go
We march to the edge
We stand over the fires of the earth
And this is not the real end
So here we go here we go here we go
Come on now

It's not 1969 anymore
It's not 1978 anymore
We can't make excuses anymore
My world's on fire how's yours?

The people united will never be defeated
