There's Jan calling from the rooftops
Jan is loudly proclaiming her message from a high place.
She says she wants to world to hear
She desires the world to pay attention to what she's saying.
Her peoples needs their basic rights
She emphasizes the essential rights of her people.
She shouts I'll make you understand

She puts her hat on
Jan gets ready for action, possibly symbolizing readiness.
Looks in the mirror
She checks herself in preparation, mentally and physically.
Says to herself
Self-reassurance to overcome any fears she might have.
You've nothing to fear
A reminder to herself that there's nothing to be afraid of.
Her friends won't argue
Her companions are supportive and won't oppose her.
Her friends don't care
They might not be concerned about the cause she's fighting for.
Now is the moment to get out of here
Jan feels it's the right time to take action and leave the current situation.
Jan's friends they're marching in the streets
Jan's friends are actively participating in protests.
The anger in their hearts
There's intense passion and frustration within them.
