Lyrics:
[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three
[Verse 1]
Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
[Chorus]
So we keep waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
[Verse 2]
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
But when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
[Chorus]
That's why we're waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
And we're still waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
[Outro]
Now we keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change

2024 and still waiting 😢
When we don’t need the world to change we need to be the change. 1 simple act of kindness has a ripple effect. Love each other as one and it will in fact change the world.
😢 I’m with you
Me too
Me too❤
Me too 🥺
Jesus loves you and wants you to follow Him ❤ He is the way, the truth, and the life. I was an atheist for years and practiced some forms of the occult until I had a supernatural encounter with Jesus that profoundly changed my life. The gift of salvation and eternal life is available to all who put their trust in Jesus. He can heal you of the deepest pain, trauma, disease, addictions, and shame. Seek Him with a genuine and humble heart and He will reveal His existence to you.
That’s right !
I was just thinking this morning The world is changing, the Creeps that run the television, the creeps that run the healthcare , the stock market, the banking system and start all the wars for profit, they are fixing to be removed. Great day to be alive! Get to know our Creator and Savior! He forgives all, He is truth and love!
Thanks!
Amen brother, we're all in this together
Who would’ve thought this song STILL speaks so much volume in 2024 😞 what are we doing? …..
Still waiting ……
Man, I remember this being a part of a PBS commercial when I was little, and I never knew the song. All I remembered was the guitar riff at 2:10, so I hummed it into Google, and now I'm here.
After 14 years, I finally found it.
What a banger.
You mean you didn’t hear it on EVAN ALMIGHTY?
Welcome😊
Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
"We can't change the world, unless we change ourselves"-The Notorious B.I.G
Love this! Change lies within ourselves ❤️
delete this stupid comment and promotion of that dead rapper...its just a hack of Michael Jackson "Man in the Mirror" who said that same thing years before

“When you trust your television, what you get is what you got- cause when they own the information they can bend it all they want.” Jesus. We’re all being sold stories- yet we all think it’s everyone else, not us.
don’t use his name in vein he saves
if only the world had him and not false teachings
This can equally go for social media and other internet outlets that post misinformation and convoluted lies. There are countless websites set up to deliberately mislead the publics' interest. Such as the case of the young man who started the QAnon movement just to see how many blind and ignorant people would follow and what a wake-up call that has been. RUclips is a huge source of misinformation and conspiracist that spread it. So you can say the same thing about the internet as you can the Media and TV nightly news. You'll find liars in every corner and crevice of the world using outlets like these to spread their own agendas. Most people believe what their circle of friends believe... they're so afraid of losing people and ending up alone that they follow whether they believe or not and whether they have a shred of evidence or not. In fact, you could wave the truth right in front of their faces, and because they've been told repeatedly how evil the news media is they won't even believe their own eyes. These tactics may be updated by today's standards of mass communication but Dictators and Demagogues like Mussolini used the same methods of brainwashing. But over time people do catch on to the lies and daily doses of bullshit they are fed and that's when the real shit goes down.
So true. Tell-A-Vision. It's not our own vision. Switch it off.

John's music doesnt get old.
This was the first album I actually liked of his
fax.
It's actually still relevant to today. We're "waiting for the world to change" due to all the sh1t we've seen and experienced l, were definitely restless about it. It's still our mentality.
He was right, we will grow up and be the leaders.
No, but we do...
Except for the fact that his music is old. See: Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions “People get ready”
The power of the internet. Being able to discover new songs everyday. And Wow what a beauty this is.
Oh u need to check out daughters by John Mayer. He is the definition of an artist
And all it will cost is the future.
This song hits different in 2020
Oooooooo yeah ! Foshow
Between Corona and Black lives matter and all the other shit yea hell yea this is more relatable then ever
Yes and no. If we keep that 2020 feeling we got now always.....then we WILL SEE CHANGE! FOR WE WILL MAKE THE CHANGES NEEDED.
True 💙
wtf i commented the same thing a week ago 🤦🏽♂️
10+ years later and we’re still waiting on the world to change
Put the exact amount of years in and come back every year to change it.
how about ya do something to make the world a better place instead of waiting for it to get better
the world won't change until the people stand up and quit letting politicians and government officials fuck us over. it won't change until people vote for a group effort, not who will send them a bribe(that check). it won't change until people think and do the research for themselves instead of blindly following corrupt sources. it won't change until we get rid of the disrespectful attitude towards others for any reason and value one another. it won't change until we get rid of these dividing categories like race, gender, sexual orientation, etc in unrequired places. it most likely won't be seen in my lifetime (I'm 23 for clarity).
thats what waiting does yeah
We always will be, unfortunately. Just live your best life and be kind to all!
I remember my teacher showing this to us in 4th grade. The teacher’s assistant put up 2 posters that said,
“Are you changing the world…
or waiting on the world to change?” and that has always stuck with me ever since. Been graduated for almost 4 years now and it’s still with me. Hope I can change the world some day one way or another.

Dont worry just be good ,do good and pray
@@MOTIVATIONAK4723 Most people on the left don't believe in God, homie.
You already have and don't realize it. We all have an impact on this world, good or bad.
Ask God to guide you. He will inspire you and guide even give you the strength. He loves having warriors of peace love and change . Good luck. We can collaborate. I am lady Gaga.
Breaks my heart. We are still waiting for world to change to this day. It ENDS this year! Change is here! Rise up my fellow my people. Stand with me!
This song was so ahead of it’s time. So relevant right now
Took the words right out of my mouth bruv! I was searching the comments hoping someone felt the same! Haha
@@dillangerardgravel1680 at 2:58 "Exploited" "Wake up" "Think" "Wake up" ...This is a warning from 12 years ago! Wake up people!
@@enternamehere3936 that is the complete opposite of what the song says but if that what it says to you that’s great
@@enternamehere3936 “when they own the information they can bend it all they want” boomers can actually change things and millennials are next. First you have to build and be in a position of power in order to change anything. You trolling online are part of the problem. Tell me what you are doing to change anything? And you have no idea what I do to make this world a better place. If I were slow, your hateful words would be detrimental to society.
Keep expressing yourself but my in a way that makes this world a better place
@@enternamehere3936 don’t post negative comments unless you can back them up troll. Prove me wrong and I will gladly apologize
that chord at 0:02 really adds some special meaning to the song
FOR REAL
Whatchu mean?
I can’t here it been stuck between 1-3
"When you trust the television, what you get is what you got. Cause when they own the information, oh, they can bend it all they want!" People need to FEEL those lyrics and recognize their truth in this day in age!!
Money on point. Can't disassemble these lyrics and not find the truth in it
Fuck yer exactly what I reckon 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
People are so distracted by the two party system, doesn't matter who you align your beliefs with, it's still the same as it's always been, the rich vs the poor.
Truth. The media bends the truth every day. It ain't news anymore, it's bent.
Now “woke” people believe that pronouns are the biggest problem in the world because of media.
This song continues to evolve...
Anyone see the relevance of this song in the midst of a pandemic?? March 2020!
Me... 😷💜
Great minds think alike. This song just 'popped' into my mind
yep
Absolutely! It's my tune of the moment
was just humming this song out of the blue!
People need to bring back inspirational lyrics like this one instead of singing about wanting to get into someone's pants or breaking up. There are more important things in the world that deserve singing about.
+Myathewolfeh1 How odd! I don't find this song inspirational at all. I'm drawn to it because I can relate to the feeling of hopelessness and helplessness and with the downright laziness expressed in it. It's depressing but real. Some of us refuse to even try to do anything to make the world a better place because we believe it's futile or because we're too selfish or lazy. Instead of actually doing anything to change ourselves or change the world, "we keep on waiting, waiting, waiting on the world to change."
+CalLadyQED same here
+Myathewolfeh1 you are my favorite person ever, i hate how every song on the radio is about sex
+Myathewolfeh1 you are my favorite person ever, i hate how every song on the radio is about sex
+Myathewolfeh1 Jesus fuck. Songs like that have been around since music has been music has existed. Stow your cynicism away, because music has never changed. The people have.
This song is at peak relevance in 2020
@John Ratican lol im a conservative
This song is at peak relevance every year.
Pretty sure a global pandemic will bring change.
@John Ratican woops you spoke to soon, there is more to life than politics bud. I also support trump doesnt mean everyone who supports trump is a good man, you clearly aren't.
@John Ratican What makes you think that?
I support trump but it doesnt mean he dictates my beliefs and morals I am my own man.
Probably one of the ominous songs I have listened to. Fantastic album.

Right now.

Always!🤙

"Cause when they own the information, they can bend it all they want." Hell yes. How old is this song? Some of it has never been more true than now.
15 years old.
Thanks but I want you to know it will be true and real to you if you all me into you finally
I forgot about bending the information,!!!!
The world has changed, just not for the better...
The world hasn't gotten worse, our information has gotten better. That's another way to look at it
There is no going back from the damage we have done to the ecosystem if you do research. Now we have ISIS. There is a lot more terrorism.
+Niko Whittlesey actually since the 1980s overall terrorism has gone down substantially. just give it a quick Google search
anthony Levite Terrorism is broadcasted a lot more though. Although if what you are saying is true, that is a plus.
guess we'll just have to keep on waiting
Still waiting.
You don't have to wait it's here
It changed for the worst !
The relevance of this song right now
20 years from now it will still be relevant as we have bad leaders leading the world....We have people enjoying killing, stealing and destroying humans for no apparent reasons.
Yep that why I came here
It was always relevant, yall just decide to really rise up now

You have to make it change.

Best comment ever!

This song will never be irrelevant and honestly that's so sad
Considering that all of this is still around and nothing is really changing yeah it is pretty sad. Let's hope some change comes our way even if it's just a small change and i hope that it benefits your life!
yes and no. There's always gonna be problems. That's not sad that's reality. What's sad is some of the problems we haven't defeated like sexism and racism.

Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite Jake and the Never Land Pirates episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
Love love love this song. Not just the melody but the words are great. :)
TY everyone. :)
I remember being inside my mother's womb during the great depression and hearing this, I was amazed by the song. It spoke truth and peace. I'm 21 now and I'm still listening to this. Like if you agree
Sherbert The destroyer Are you and your family time travellers?
There was a great depression in the 90s?
***** lol it's a joke actually. You know how kids be like "I love this song. And I'm 12" I'm just making fun of them.
Funny how this song has a different meaning to everyone which aligns with their personal views (obviously) but that just goes to show we all want a better world but who decides what better is, is a matter of individual perspective.
so deep, matt
The world is complicated, but there's still behaviors and actions that are clearly destructive and lead to suffering. It's about knowing what to do in the moment and realizing there is no one size fits all solution.
Some people want the world to change to fit them. Others want the world to change to fit us all.
@J Nobody wants the later 😂
Facts son
its not changing until Jesus Christ comes back and sets up his Kingdom. then it will be a glorious day!!!
These words are as relevant as ever. Still waiting in October 2019.

Hello. Good morning. My name is Brian López. What is your favorite My Gym Partner's a Monkey episode? Please let me know in the comments down below.
It has been nearly ten years since I have first heard this song. This is the first song I ever remember hearing, and for some strange reason, I could never forget the song, even when I forgot both the tune and the lyrics, and had no clue who the artist was. I realized that it was the feeling in my heart I couldn't forget. About a year ago, I figured out why... it is my soul's song. So I spent the last three weeks racking my brain, trying my best to remember anything about the tune or the lyrics. Finally, I succeed and have been 'reunited' with my soul song. Like if there is a song that you feel is your 'soul song'.

Yup... MSNBC and CNN make a go of it everyday. It's called Fake News!
still the reality
A senior citizen in Milwaukee introduced me to John Mayer. I bought a computer from him and he had recorded some songs in the music files. I was a 30.year old recluse who had never heard of John Mayer.
Hold onto every song and every movie that defines the person you were striving to become and never did.
I remember begging my mom to play this song in every car ride (I had begged for months for a physical copy) I lost the CD and could never find it on the radio again. Around 2 years later and two days before christmas it suddenly came on while we pulled into our driveway. Everyone didnt get out and we all just sat there and listened to it.
We used to listen to this song alot on the radio! Love it!

Nothing has changed.
He probably never guessed the dreamers and progressives of that day would become the dupe army of this day.
worlds always been fucked, you've just grown up enough to realise it. john mayer wrote this in 2006, the year of saddam husseins death and the beginning of revelations about bush and blair's warmongering by lying about weapons of mass destruction in iraq and invading on false evidence. while i have no doubt saddam hussein was a terrible person, starting a war on lies is despicable. yet other atrocities come off of the back of lies, the gulf of tonkin incident is still discussed in historical debate, same with the reichstag fire, tiananmen square is still covered up, and none of us know what to do about those at the top who play with the world like pawns on a chess board. worlds fucked, but i've not got a clue about what to do about it, and those who do are the same people who take the previous player's seat at the chess table. we wait on the world to change, but change is never enough.
It’s an incredible song with an incredible message!!! Though, this is a never ending cycle. So long as there have been newspapers there have been people who have caught on to the game. To quote Anthony Hopkins in Legends of the Fall (movie set in early 1900’s) “that’s what people who want to sell newspapers say about war “
It came out in 2006.
I always liked how the drums sound in this great song.
steve jordan is a living legend of a drummer
Really? I like the guitar solo
Be strong 💪, courageous, and continue to wait on YAHUAH. For our sweet savior is so near my friends. ❤
One of the greatest songs of all time, beautiful lyrics.
It'd be amazing to hear him singing with Joe Bonamassa.
God bless the countries fighting Corona,prayers out for all.God bless the world.
This song hits spot on since it was made hits the same even now
I was 20 years old when this song came out. I’m 37 now. This song was Sing to our generation. We are now at that age That our generation is going to start ruling the population. And we are not going to wait for the world to change anymore. We are going to do it our selves.
I think that's the real meaning behind the song. It's a warning that we are coming.
"It's hard to beat the system, when we're standing at a distance"
This means that we were just kids, and wanted to change things, but weren't able to because we weren't adults. But now time has passed, and we *are* adults. So we no longer have to wait.
John Mayer really has a way to connect with his audience
Obviously... his audience is as clever as him... they are waiting, and waiting... and nothing changes? Do you really expect it does by listening to The Brain, JM? Does it?
“We must be the change that we wish to see in the world”

We like fortnite, we like fortnite - Mahatma Gandhi
such an unfortunate thing it is, the whole world recognizes him as a wise man but in India itself some people curses Gandhi all the day. for me he is hero, he is the only reason we exist as a free country. I am waiting for some Indians to change.
@@ashu8593 agreed on the gist of what you wrote, but he is NOT the only reason we're free today. And I choose to think you already know that but kind of let your emotions get the better of you.
*This is a phenomenally awesome song*
Wow, people these days. This is my favorite song and your reply is that.
Hmm...
Hi Johnny.
Thanks, The_Macho_Turtle.
David Hu sarcasm?
No, I actually did not know that.
David Hu especially once u have awakened!
“So we keep on waiting! *WAITING!!!* Waiting on the world to change!”
Back when lyrics were worth a damn.
+Alex Ochoa they still are, just not in todays pop music sadly
Stfu. 2000's lyrics were shit. So were the 70's. People are people. We've always loved sex and groovy times. Grow up.
im not talking about pop music, which i can see you reffering too. there are still alot of musicians with heartfelt lyrics
turtles i dont know if you are replying to me btw
back when they did....
I relate to the feeling... But we can't wait anymore... The world is changing for the worse.
Waiting...
So many things in the world are changing, yet so many things will never change.
This song gets me in Tears every time. We live in a super sad World, hard times, basically everything is not OK right now. But we Keep on Waiting...Waiting on the World to Change
I know bro
I can see it
we should stop waiting
Prayers to God for your own personal change. Where you become a warrior of abode and create warriors of God. That is probably one of the best of God’s Tools. An army of Gods faithful that can spread like corona 19.
If you pay close attention you can see that it actually is slowly changing for the better.
I remember listening to this song when MTV used to actually play music videos
Feels like it was in another lifetime ;D
They still play music videos, but it's early in the morning..
This is definitely a feel good song!! It's September 2023 and I'm still listening to this classic!!!
They don’t make them like this anymore. JP Cooper September is a next one
Radical! 😂
And still waiting
Change is forever. Everyday the world is changing but sadly its not for the better.
This song is now more relevant than ever..
Yes, but the time for WAITING on the world to change is over. It should be time to MAKE it change.
I've done my part. Who else has done theirs, today?
This song been relevant since the WW1 times.
kakashi101able I guess so.
