Revolution

Directed towards anyone who might think that extremism is the way to go.



You say you want a revolution
Well, 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 going to be alright?

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 all doing what we can.

But if you want money for people
with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother,
you have to wait.

Don't you know it's
gonna be alright?

You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We'd all love to change your head.

You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free your mind instead.

But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow.

Don't you know it's going to be alright?
