Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
Don't you know
You better run, run, run
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution

You say you want a revolutionWell, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
All right, all right
You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can
But when you want money
For people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
All right, all right
You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
I've got to get myself out of this place
Cause something's happenin' to me
I don't know why, but the whole human race
Has lost it's sweet sanity
It well may be that I just don't belong
In modern society...
Chorus
What's happenin' to the world we live in now
It's getting harder to be in it but we know we're gonna make it somehow
We spend all our days tryin' to make somebody proud
It's enough to make me wanna go and scream it out loud
You're sittin' there, at your job, nine to five
And you just wanna go home
You're waitin' tables, you hardly get by
Makin' your way all alone
You wonder how come the man can decide--
On what should be up to me
So please don't mind, as I politely confide,
I've got a f***** problem with the concept of authority...
Chorus
We waste all our time always talkin' about
All that's wrong with the world, why don't we do somethin' about it?
Let's get up on our feet, Let's take it to the street,
We'll show em' how it's done, I say we start a revolution today...
I guess you're wonderin' how I became The jaded girl that I am
I've seen it all, but I still can't relate to any woman or man
Some troubles cannot be helped or explained
They run in waters too deep
We try to cover them best as we can
Cause God Forbid somebody see us when we're weak
Chorus
In my dream I break the chains that hold this place together
but in my dream the consequences would be so much better
Then they are.... cause beyond the walls that hold us here
Skies that stretch across the atmosphere
Oh a revolution is near
In my room I hear the echoes of the recent battle....yeah
Lost and wounded as the faded cries begin to settle for the night
But the words you use to hurt me now
Only seem to make me strong some how
Oh a revolution is now
And the days will get warmer, and I'll take down my armor
Together we can fight this feeling
And the demons that stalk us will eventually turn to dust
Together we can start this healing
They took my faith
They put it in a headlock and
They sealed my fate
Somewhere inside the world
In which they live
Because I failed
They constantly ignore me and
They told me I lost my mind but
I believe that I rule the world
ChorusI'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
And you can pitch your gold against my soul
But I bet you get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
It won't be long
It won't be long
Till I solve my mystery
And what for me
What do I believe in and
A masterkey
Is somewhere inside of the world in which I live
And what for they
They will speak for no-one
And I may have lost my mind
But I believe that I rule my world
Chorus
