Lyrics
Tell me everything you think I need to know Gonna try, gonna try Gonna get it to go

Tell me something that will change my world And when I feel sad/would not feel sad(?) I don’t think so

So I’m sitting at the local dump Bought a drink to shut you up You were saying how you been reborn

Hey now, everybody do the uniform (x5)

Teach respect for what they say Run them down when they get in the way I’d give it up I’d heed the call If it didn’t seem so criminal Lose your body, mind, and soul To an ancient ritual When all logic's lost and gone

Hey now, maybe we can do the uniform Hey now, everybody do the uniform (x5)

And even if the tough guy’s telling the truth That’s too bad Mean, do you really want the dark side speaking for you? That’s so sad

Now change colour

Tell me everything you think I need to know Go die, go die, go die Make 'em terminate original And convince yourself it’s right Give your body, mind and soul An outdated ritual And once you know whose side you’re on

Hey now, everybody do the uniform (x5)

And even if the tough guy’s telling the truth That’s too bad Mean, do you really want the dark side speaking for you? That’s so sad

It’s your moment But you hang by your fingers stripped to the bone Been broken So get back in your place and Lay down your arm

And even if the tough guy’s telling the truth That’s too bad Mean, do you really want the dark side speaking for you? That’s so sad

Hey now, everybody do the uniform (x8)

Now change colour

Teach respect for what they say Run them down when they get in the way (change colour) I’d give it up I’d heed the call If it didn’t seem so criminal Lose your body, mind, and soul To an ancient ritual (change colour) When all logic's lost and gone

Hey now, maybe we can do the uniform

It’s your moment But you hang by your fingers stripped to the bone Been broken So get back in your place and Lay down your arms

It’s so sad You can tell by the splinters that enter your heart You’ve spoken Only that’s an opinion And this a command

Hey now, everybody do the uniform (now change colour)  (x3) Hey now, everybody do the uniform
