Attitude - Information Society

Johnny moved to this big town

To be who he could be

But the tough guys on the sidewalk

They don’t want him to be free

But he knows he has the power

He knows someday they’ll be dead

The can’t get him to turn around

He keeps walking straight ahead

'Cuz he’s got attitude

And it will get him through

And he’s got attitude

And it will see him though

Backstage Mary

She grew up with nothing but hunger in her purse

All the fancy ladies tell her

«You'll only go from bad to worse.»

But she just keeps on believing

She tells them she’s doing fine

They get rich while she gets smart

She’s growing stronger all the time

'Cuz she’s got attitude

And it will get her through

And she’s got attitude

And it will see her through

Everybody knows who «they» are

They need no address

They make sure things are going their way

And the country’s in a mess

As they buy that land, start that war

Keep those people poor

They don’t care if people aren’t

Going to take it anymore

And they’ve got attitude

And it will get them through

And they’ve got attitude

And it will see them through
