Say What You Want lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw you ranting on TV today
I heard you tell me to reload
You got a lot of nerve to talk that way
Someone unplug the microphone

[Verse 2]
I'm tired of all the fighting
Cynicism and back-biting
Can't even hear myself think
You pour the Kool-Aid and then we drink

[Pre-Chorus]
So much noise, so much chatter
Does the truth even matter?

[Chorus]
(Say, say what you want to)
Even though you never mean it
(Say, say what you want to)
Ain't got time to be wasting time
(Say, say what you want to)
We had our chance, now we're gonna blow it
(Say, say what you want to)
If this is America, you'd never know it
[Verse 3]
Ignorance is patriotic
Reason is idiotic
Winds of change keep on blowing
If this is America, you'd never know it

[Pre-Chorus]
So much noise, so much chatter
Does the truth even matter? Ooh

[Chorus]
(Say, say what you want to)
Even though you never mean it
(Say, say what you want to)
Ain't got time to be wasting time
(Say, say what you want to)
We had our chance, now we're gonna blow it
(Say, say what you want to)
If this is America, you'd never know it

[Bridge]
All you little ones with open hearts (With open hearts)
Don't let hatred tear your world apart (Oh)
And if you wonder who is wrong or who is right (Who is right)
Better go ask God
To shine some light
[Verse 4]
Earthquakes and jihad Jane
Talking heads and hate campaigns
If aliens should land today
Who would be more afraid, us or them?

[Chorus]
(Say, say what you want to)
Even though you never mean it
(Say, say what you want to)
Ain't got time to be wasting time
(Say, say what you want to)
We had our chance, now we're gonna blow it
(Say, say what you want to)
If this is America, you'd never know it
(Say, say what you want to)
You gotta say it, say it
(Say, say what you want to)
Whatever's on your mind
(Say, say what you want to)
Get me a microphone, baby
(Say, say what you want to)
Oh, oh, I have some things I wanna say

[Outro]
(Say, say what you want to)
Doo-doo-doo
(Say, say what you want to)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
(Say, say what you want to)
(Say, say what you want to)
All you lovers
All you haters
(Say, say what you want to)
Got something to say, yeah, oh
(Say, say what you want to)
(Say, say what you want to)
