I met him at a protest
Dolled up in his finest finery
A Malcolm X t-shirt
And a tambourine
The loving, it was hopeless
The cannons fell and shook the barricade
We came in at the chorus
I could hear him say
Eatin' that burger
Pass the kitchen condiments
Eatin' that mother
Don't that hot sauce hit the spot
Eatin' that torture
Don't you let your conscience harm you
Aye, for that mother can't see you suffer
And one for all and all for another
(Pourin' rain, pourin' rain)
A long October under the sun
(Pourin' rain, pourin' rain)
Change comes for the better
(If you want it)
Our change will come
Hey, you!
Eatin' that burger
All you "All Americans"
Eatin' that mother
Give the chef my compliments
Eatin' that torture
Yeah, you show such understandin'
Aye, but that mother can't see you suffer...
And one for all and all for another
(Pourin' rain, pourin' rain)
A long October under the sun
(Pourin' rain, pourin' rain)
Change comes for the better
If you want it
Our change will come... stop
Eatin' that burger
Pass the kitchen condiments
Eatin' that mother
Don't that a hot sauce hit the spot
Eatin' that torture
Won't you let your conscience warn you
Aye, for that mother you can't see suffer
