Well, I've been watching us very close, 
And I guess the one thing that's been bothering me the most, 
Is when I see us playing by the same rules that the world is using. 
Well, I've been listening to the things that we say, 
And I, I hear us mention words like fortune and fame, 
And it makes me wonder if we're sure about the side we're choosing. 
That's why I'm asking you 

[CHORUS] 
Who makes the rules for me and you, 
When it's wrong or right is it black and white' 
Who makes the rules for me and you; 
It's our life at stake so we better know who makes the rules. 
When I see people just like you and me, 
Trying to live out the pictures they see on TV; 
Gotta have a new car, new clothes, new love when they get tired of trying. 
Well, I've been reading bout a different way, 
Talking bout dying to live and losing to gain; 
Seems like somebody's telling us the truth and somebody's lying. 
I want to know who. 
(chorus) 
Two voices are calling out to you; 
You're serving the one you're listening to, 
So, tell me who, somebody tell me who.
