A revolution never come with a warning
A revolution never send you an omen A revolution just arrive like the morning Ring the alarm we come to wake up the snoring They tellin you to never worry bout the future They tellin you to never worry bout the torture They tellin you that you will never see the horror Spend it all today and we will bill you tomorrow Three piece suits and bank accounts in Bahamas Wall Street crime will never get ya to the slammer Tell all the children in the arms of the mama's the F - 15 is a suicide bomber TV commercials for a pop-A-pill culture drug companies circle in like a vulture Amer-Iraqi babies with a GI Joe father 10 years from now is anybody gonna bother Everyone addicted to the same nicotine Everyone addicted to the same gasoline Everyone addicted to a technicolor screen Everybody trying to get their hands on the same green From the banks of the river to the banks of the greedy All of the riches taken back by the needy We come for the country and we come from the city Play us on a record you can play us on a CD All the chit you given us is fertilizer The seeds that we planted you can never brutalize her Tell the corporation you can never globalize it Like Peter Tosh said... legalize it Girls and boys and the bass and the treble rumbling the speakers and it makes you want to rebel Throw your hands up and take it to another level and you never ever ever make a deal with the devil Yell fire oh yo yo yo Michael Franti and Spearhead |
