Revolution

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.

(chorus)

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

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

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

Well, alright

Everybody...Revolution!

Alright! (x 9)

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 if you want money for people with minds that hate,

All I can tell you brother you have to wait.

(REPEAT CHORUS)

You say you'll change a constitution

Well, you know

We all want 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 going to make it with anyone anyhow.

(REPEAT CHORUS)
