The New Heathers - Start lyrics

Everybody's talkin' 'bout the world and its problems I've been muffling my mouth around the herd All the watching and the reading, wondering, "What's the solution?" Got me no choice but to bleat out all these words No more use in arguing convention There's just one plan left, we all know it will work You can start by protecting the weakest among us You can start by defending their needs Some will doubt the candor, they'll say "No, you can't mean it. There's no way to defeat it. This is how the world works." We'll scream, "It's so simple. Compa**ion is so useful. You're neighbor's he who needs you." It's not a faceless term. Since crushing all the ma**es is called progress, We're not hanging on to see the end result You can start... There's food, shelter, clothing, education, care for everyone And every heart that beats and all that's tied to this world we live on It's not like we don't know it, or don't have the seeds to sow it There's really no choice left to make, we should've started yesterday Sit and watch each other suffocate, or set our courses straight You can start... by fullfilling their needs
