The kids are out of school again

Hanging around and fucking with my sound

Don't they know I'm tired and old?

And completely prepared to throw down

I guess they're gonna find out now

They're gonna find out right now

They're gonna find out right now

The kids are on the street again

Looking real cool and breaking all the rules

But I'm drinking tonight and I'm ready to fight

Do they think that I'm some kind of fool?

I guess they're gonna find out now

They're gonna find out right now

They're gonna find out right now

Call off the dogs call off the dogs

I want to go home

Seal off the tombs and stitch up the wombs

Tell the kids they're on their own

Call off the dogs call off the dogs

I've gone to see my king

I'll just kick out the chair and fall through the air

As the angels start to sing:

“Don't you want to go?

Don't you want to let your lovin' grow and grow

Until it's ten feet tall?

Don't you want to touch the cup that fills you up?

Don't spill it in the sun”

Brother don't go to war (right on)

Save the babies and feed the poor (right on)

As leading ladies undress their wounds (right on)

At the sight of your silver spoon (right on)

Right on

Right on

Sister let's fight the power (right on)

Raise your fist and unfold your flower (right on)

We'll move to Berkeley and spread the news (right on)

Catch the herpes and sing the blues (right on)

Right on

Right on
