Save the complaints for a party conversation. 
The world is loaded, it's lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop  
No one  No one! No way! Gonna stop, nowgo! 
Farm people, book wavers, soul savers, love preachers! 
Lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop. 
One come a day, the water will run, 
No man will stand for things that he had done  
Hurrah! 
And the water will run  
One come a day, the water will run, 

No man will stand for things that he had done  
Hurrah! 
And the water will run  
Will Run! 
Will Run!
Gimmie that! 
Gimmie that -- your automobile, turn off that smokestack and
That goddamn radio, hum  along with me  
Hum along with the t.v. A-a-a-a-m-m-m-m-m-m.
No one's-gonna-stop.
