I don't know what you think we do with our time.
Do you think we don't know what's wrong and what's right?
Do you think that we're not all there,
just because of how we cut our hair?
I bet you think that we're living worthless lives"

And if you think you've got us cornered now,
If think you've got us figured out.
Then it won't be long before you hear us shout.

I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
How can you call me - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
No, I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
Any more.

I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
How can you call me - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
No, I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
Any more, not any more.

The government's making new laws all of the time.
We try to tell them that being young's not a crime.
We try to tell them, but they just don't care,
this fucked up system's so unfair.
Pretty soon we won't have any rights.

I don't know what you think we do with our time.
Do you think we don't know what's wrong and what's right?
Do you think that we're not all there,
just because of how we cut our hair?
I bet you think that we're living worthless lives.

And if you think you've got us cornered now,
If think you've got us figured out.
Then it won't be long before you hear us shout.

I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
How can you call me - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
No, I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
Any more.

I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
How can you call me - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
No, I don't wanna be - A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN,
Any more, not any more.
