  • Find yourself in a situation
    Can't talk your way out of
    Stimulate the conversation
    How do you rise above
    You try to tell some one
    But you can't describe it
    We'll start a demonstration
    Or we'll create a scene
    Make noise from our frustration
    Newspapers, magazines
    We'll turn them on their heads
    You can't deny it

    For once
    We'll do what come naturally
    We'll approach it casually
    With no apology
    For once
    We will have the final say
    Goodbye to yesterday
    Cause we know we're hear to stay

    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New sensation
    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New creation

    Give every generation
    A different set of rules
    We'll start with TV stations
    The radios and schools
    Just try to have some fun
    And don't get caught
    We'll capture their attention
    We'll make them quite aware
    Of all of our intentions
    We'll make 'em stop and stare
    They'll take a second look
    On second thought

    For once
    We'll do what come naturally
    We'll approach it casually
    With no apology
    For once
    We can have the final say
    Goodbye to yesterday
    Cause they know we're hear to stay

    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New salvation
    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New translation
    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New elation
    Pop, pop, pop goes the world
    New sensation Writer/s: HANNAH BLILIE, MARY BETH PATTERSON, NATHAN HOWDESHELL
