Waiting On The World To Change (An Essential Worker Anthem)

Dedicated to frontline healthcare workers everywhere... Lyrics: These are all my friends We’re all misunderstood The people call us heroes So that the people can feel good Now we see everything that’s going wrong With the world and those who lead it But no matter how they screw it up We rise above and treat it And we keep waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change It’s hard to fix the system When you try but no one listens So we keep waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change Now if we had the power To keep our colleagues safe from harm They would have never lacked a face mask No more violence on our wards But when you trust the politicians What you get is what you got And when our health is just a business It’s just the profits that they want That’s why we’re waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change We can’t stop the way we care Though we know that the fight ain’t fair So we keep on waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change And we’re still waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change But if we fight this fight together We could change the world forever So let’s stop waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change We can’t keep waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change So let’s stop waiting (waiting) Waiting on the world to change Waiting on the world to change Waiting on the world to change Time to help the world to change Learn more about your ad choices.
