Anti-Establishment Man Lyrics
Standing by the roadside
Old newspaper in my hand.
Reading yesterday's headlines,
Nothing new, I said it's all the same.
Everywhere!
I'm the fool of the year and I've been waiting
Twenty five years of anticipating
I've seen changes in my land
People I'm here to tell you,
I've been around since the world began.
Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can,
I'm an anti-establishment man.
I'm tired of your treating
All of my children the same.
Everywhere!
Spending all that money
On a stupid war in Vietnam
(When we need it at home)
People I'm here to tell you,
I think it's 'bout time that the world began (all over!)
Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can,
I'm an anti-establishment man.
Old newspaper in my hand.
Reading yesterday's headlines,
Nothing new, I said it's all the same.
Everywhere!
I'm the fool of the year and I've been waiting
Twenty five years of anticipating
I've seen changes in my land
I've been around since the world began.
Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can,
I'm an anti-establishment man.
All of my children the same.
Everywhere!
Spending all that money
On a stupid war in Vietnam
(When we need it at home)
I think it's 'bout time that the world began (all over!)
Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can,
I'm an anti-establishment man.
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
this song is also about vietnam, saying how the government promised to stop the war, but they have done very little. and seeing how the government is focusing on the war, they failed to look at the real problems at home. and he is saying how he is sick of it and no matter what you tell him hes gonna just think the same way about the government
