Scratch Where It Itches

Just because most people say
Doesn’t make it right
What would you do? What would you do?
Turn away until they came for you?

Chorus:
Raise hell, take a stand, kick the status quo in the britches
Fill what’s empty, empty what’s full, and scratch where it itches

Contradictions fly
But folks close their eyes
Now think it through, now think it through
Ask yourself who benefits from lies

chorus

Meanness gets well-disguised as fairness these days
“Justice!” they cry, but you’re the one who pays

Keeping people down
Keeps those profits high
Look around you, look around you
How long can we let this continue?

chorus
