The Revolution (Live)
Amplifiers and old guitars
Country music sung in bars
And when she sings the revolution's near
Beauty holds the microphone
And watches as we stumble home
And she can see the revolution now
Dirt and fish and trees and houses
Smoke and hands up women's blouses
Not like I expected it would be
Bubbles pop in every size
It's analyzed and criticized
And beauty knows that it is almost here
Beauty goes to her address
Shuts the door and climbs the steps
And when she sleeps the revolution grows
Beauty rests on mattress strings
Wearing just her underthings
And when she wakes, the revolution's wins
When she wakes, the revolution's here
Ladies and gentlemen
Country music sung in bars
And when she sings the revolution's near
Beauty holds the microphone
And watches as we stumble home
And she can see the revolution now
Dirt and fish and trees and houses
Smoke and hands up women's blouses
Not like I expected it would be
Bubbles pop in every size
It's analyzed and criticized
And beauty knows that it is almost here
Beauty goes to her address
Shuts the door and climbs the steps
And when she sleeps the revolution grows
Beauty rests on mattress strings
Wearing just her underthings
And when she wakes, the revolution's wins
When she wakes, the revolution's here
Ladies and gentlemen
