Don't you know
they're talkin' 'bout a revolution
it sounds
like a whisper
don't you know
they're talkin' 'bout a revolution
it sounds
like a whisper
while they're
standing in the welfare lines
crying at the doorsteps of
those armies of salvation
wasting time
in the unemployment lines
sitting around
waiting for a promotion
don't you know
they're talkin' 'bout a revolution
it sounds
like a whisper
poor people are gonna rise up
and get their share
poor people are gonna rise up
and take what's theirs
don't you know you better
run, run, run, run, run, run,
run, run, run, run, run, run
oh I said you better
run, run, run, run, run, run,
run, run, run, run, run, run
'cause finally the tables
are starting to turn
talkin' 'bout a revolution
'cause finally the tables
are starting to turn
talkin' 'bout a revolution
oh no
talkin' 'bout a revolution
oh while they're
standing in the welfare lines
crying at the doorsteps of
those armies of salvation
wasting time
in the unemployment lines
sitting around
waiting for a promotion
don't you know
you're talkin' 'bout a revolution
it sounds
like a whisper
and finally the tables
are starting to turn
talkin' 'bout a revolution
it's finally the tables
are starting to turn
talkin' 'bout a revolution
oh no
talkin' 'bout a revolution
oh no
talkin' 'bout a revolution
oh no
