I know just what you’re thinking
I know just what i need
You probably think you’re winning
But i’m catching up to speed
I’m hoping that it’s over
Soon enough to sleep
‘Cause resting isn’t easy
With weapons up my sleeve
Don’t plan out your speech just yet
‘Cause I don’t really care
I’m fine on my own
I know how to defend
Everyone of my rights
This is number one
He’s waving to the people
From his trusty steed
One hand’s in his pocket
Lining it with greed
Some of the believers
Who follow every word
Have taken up their rifles
To slaughter by the heard
Don’t plan out your speech just yet
‘Cause I don’t really care
I’m fine on my own
I know how to defend
Everyone of my rights
This is number one
Yesterday is over
Tomorrow’s soon to come
The here and now is patient
Until the day is done
Nothing ever goes away
Except each passing day
The prison walls keep rising
Until the people say
Don’t plan out your speech just yet
‘Cause we don’t really care
We’re fine on our own
We know how to defend
Everyone of our rights
This is number one
Don’t plan out your speech just yet
‘Cause you don’t really care
You don’t really care
And I know how to defend
Everyone of my rights
This is number one
