You gotta fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
You got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding heart's way

You got to fight for your rights, you can't bury your head in the sand
You gotta fight for your rights, you can't just bury your head in the sand
Politics and religion, superstition go hand in hand

Well you're going through the motions
And they can't hear a word you say
Well you're going through the motions
They don't want to hear a word you say
Got to keep boredom at bay and keep mediocrity away

Got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding heart's way

You got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding heart's way
