And no one dares to ask them what they do after dark |
|
And the prize they give to men who kill is a statue in the park |
|
Don't let them cut your wings dear ones before you learn to fly |
|
Too soon the game will seem too real and then no one will ask why |
|
I'm scared to start but can't stop my heat now I want the Revolution |
|
It's what they do not what they say that screams out "it's a lie" |
|
Let's hang together then good friends or you know we'll hang alone |
|
And the hawks that fly will tear your eyes and rip the skin clean off your bones |
|
I'm afraid to die but I'm a man inside and I need the Revolution |
|
And I'm crying watching brothers of mine doing time for making those waves |
|
About evil men who've been sittin' on them laughin' lovin' the system they've saved |
|
All those heavy handed hit down hard arms have pushed me to this fight |
|
And I'm tired of seeing our name done wrong when it's us who gives 'em the right |
|
And if looks can tell sure as hell we're gonna have our Revolution |
