F#5 G#5 A5
When they grow up, the silly people who will run the world
When I'm thinking of the silly men
People trying to run the world
Something must be done about it
Something must be done right now
'bout the silly people trying to run the world
And I hear them call out my name when I run run
Then I hear them call out my name when I run
When I run, when I run, when I run run
But something must be done about it
Something must be done right now
About all the people trying to run the world

The lady beggar hear them in the street
They're gonna break down the doors
They'll knock knock
Well, something must be done about it
About the silly people trying to break down my door
They break down the door
They break down the door
They break down the door
