Hey, everybody won't you lend me your ear
There's something to fear, it's here, and that's clear
Men gettin' rich off rapin' the land
I can't understand why we don't take them in hand.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in.
Feel that our lives are in the hands of fools
Losin' their cool, it's us that they rule
Too many people sittin' dead on their ass
They ain't got no class, people this time must pass.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
Hey ... I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
Oh ... yeah, tomorrow comes creepin'
Oh ... hear me cryin' 'cause the people like me
That long to be free are not actually
Please everybody won't you hear this song
Help a country that's wrong to someday be strong.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
No! Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin'
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'…
There's something to fear, it's here, and that's clear
Men gettin' rich off rapin' the land
I can't understand why we don't take them in hand.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in.
Feel that our lives are in the hands of fools
Losin' their cool, it's us that they rule
Too many people sittin' dead on their ass
They ain't got no class, people this time must pass.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
Hey ... I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
'fore tomorrow comes creepin' in
Oh ... yeah, tomorrow comes creepin'
Oh ... hear me cryin' 'cause the people like me
That long to be free are not actually
Please everybody won't you hear this song
Help a country that's wrong to someday be strong.
Oh Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
No! Lord, I don't want to be their fool no more
Open eyes, but you're sleepin'
You best wake up 'fore tomorrow comes creepin'
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Creepin' ...
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'
Tomorrow comes creepin'…

Parole e musica di Mark Farner
Nell’album intitolato "We're An American Band” (dove il gruppo abbandonò il nome originario semplificandolo in Grand Funk).
Ehi, aprite bene le orecchie! C’è qualcosa che dobbiamo temere, ed è qui, ed è ora, ed è evidente: sono gli uomini che si arricchiscono depredando e stuprando il paese… Non riesco a capire perché non li acciuffiamo subito… Non dobbiamo più stare in loro balìa, apriamo gli occhi, smettiamola di dormire, apriamo gli occhi prima che sia troppo tardi, prima che il loro domani si insinui insidioso strisciando fra di noi come un serpente velenoso…
