Well I'm about to get sick From watchin' my TV Been checkin' out the news Till my eyeballs fail to see I mean to say that every day Is just another rotten mess (Sure 'nuff!) And when it's gonna change, my friend Is anybody's guess (Well!) (Woa!)
So I'm Watchin' and I'm a--waitin' I'm hopin' for the best Even think I'll go to prayin' Every time I hear 'em sayin' There's no way to delay That trouble comin' every day There's no way to delay That trouble comin' every day
Wednesday I watched the riot I seen the cops out on the street I watched 'em throwin' rocks & stuff & chokin' In the heat I listen to reports 'Bout the whisky passin' around I seen the smoke & fire And the market burnin' down I watched while everybody On his street would take a turn To stomp & smash & bash & crash & slash & bust & burn
I'm a--watchin' and I'm a--waitin' But I'm hopin' for the best Even think I'll go to prayin' Every time I hear 'em sayin' There's no way to delay That trouble comin' every day There's no way to delay That trouble comin' every day
Watchin' and I'm a--waitin' I'm hopin' for the best Even think I'll go to prayin' Every time I hear 'em sayin', oh, yeah...
