[Verse 1]

A symptom of the state

A consequence of madness

An overwhelming sense of an underlying sadness

The rain on the parade

Will only soak the ballots

The kids are wide awake

And they rage against the palace

[Pre-Chorus]

Someone

Save us

[Chorus]

Gotta get back up

When you've been on the way down

There's a spark, there's a light

There's a will, there's a way out

It could be so tight, it could be so sick

It just ain't right and it just ain't this

We need more fight and we need more grit

We need more punks and we need more bricks

[Verse 2]

The next emergency can only be so tragic

An opportunity for the next distraction tactic

The victims get the blame

When pricks get caught red handed

And don't reach for your kids

'Cause we got this boat surrounded

[Pre-Chorus]

Someone

Save us

[Chorus]

Gotta get back up

When you've been on the way down

There's a spark, there's a light

There's a will, there's a way out

It could be so tight, it could be so sick

It just ain't right and it just ain't this

We need more fight and we need more grit

We need more punks and we need more bricks

[Bridge]

Yeah, we need more punks

And we need more bark

And we need more bite

Just because it's not on your own doorstep

Doesn't make it right

It doesn't make it right

We gotta make it right

We gotta make it

[Chorus]

Gotta get back up

When you've been on the way down

There's a spark, there's a light

There's a will, there's a way out

It could be so tight, it could be so sick

It just ain't right and it just ain't this

We need more fight and we need more grit

We need more punks and we need more bricks

[Outro]

Gotta get back up

When you've been on the way down

There's a spark, there's a light

There's a will, there's a way

There's a way

There's a way out
