You can't deal with the problem on the surface anymore

Go for the root -

And put your boot in the door

Knock down the walls



And get right to the core

Go for the root

Brush off the dust when you find it

Now's the time to explore



Go for the root

It's the conflict between fact and meaning

I'm living proof

And you can't scale the walls



'Cause there's an armed guard on the roof

Go for the root

Just found a crack in the foundations

We'll drill ourselves a way



Right to the root

Brush off the dust when you find it

Now's the time to explore

Go for the root



You can't deal with the problem on the surface anymore

Go for the root

It's the conflict between fact and meaning

I'm living proof



When you watch the starving thousands

On the channel of your choice my friend

You're an audience for war

But you're always switching sides



It's like looking at a landscape

Through a microscope in the middle of the night -

Even half a revolution

Would only bring you light



Go for the root

You're so messed up by politics lady

There's nothing exotic in poverty

Go for the root



Where do you get your information

From a dream or a twenty four inch screen

Brush off the dust when you find it

Now's the time to explore



Go for the root

You can't deal with the problem on the surface anymore

Go for the root
