the sun's up, it's bright now
new morning
the sun's up, it's bright out
new morning

we came in peace
for all mankind
for tearing up the streets
not a day past seventeen 
what an awful, awful shame they say
i tell them
"you don't know a thing."
didn't even make eighteen

set us up the shackles!
old and grown and overfed
basking in the pleasures of the ignorant
buried in prescriptions
set us up the shackles!
tear us down
with sticks and stones


the sun is up, it's bright out
wake yourself, new morning
