Revolution (Acoustic Version)
Ready? (Yeah)
One, two, one-two
I spent 27 years in this factory
And the boss man says, "Hey, you're not what we need"
The penguins in the suits they know nothing but greed
It's a solitary life when you've mouths to feed
But who cares about us?
Now I'm back on the streets
With my hands held shut
I'm a working man without any work
Well, is this the way it's meant to be?
Because I signed on for the American dream
Now, I write my name to the welfare scheme
The money in the bank, but it's history
So take me down to where the worlds collide
And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied
So let the revolution begin
Now I drag these bones across the barren land
Where once a city, now an outstretched hand
We can't lose our sense of dignity
While the fat-faced cats lap up the cream
Another disappearing act falls up their sleeves
While the shirts on our back seek refugee
So take me down to where the worlds collide
And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied
'Cause there'll come a day
When all of us will show, we won't be afraid
Although we're crashing, we won't burn
Let the revolution, the revolution begin
I spent 27 years in this factory
And now the boss man says, "Hey you're not what we need"
The penguins in the suits they know nothing but greed
It's a solitary life when you've mouths to feed
So take me down to where the worlds collide
And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied
Yeah, take me down to where the worlds divide
And leave me here I won't compromise
'Cause there'll come a day
When all of us will show, we won't be afraid
'Cause from these ashes we will grow
Let the revolution begin, the revolution, the revolution begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
One, two, one-two
I spent 27 years in this factory
And the boss man says, "Hey, you're not what we need"
The penguins in the suits they know nothing but greed
It's a solitary life when you've mouths to feed

Let the revolution begin, the revolution, the revolution begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
