Fired up and you say you want it

No don't ever lose your will to fight

Oh and when you think upon it

It's hard work but it will be worth it

When we see smoke filling up the sky

Burn it down then we'll build upon it

'Cause we're the children of the revolution

Ziggy looked me in the eye and said revolution

Never let the spirit die revolution

It's only just a quarter mile to the revolution

No need for to think it over

No need to beat around the bushel now

See it all as a wanted lover

I'm your sister and your brother

Come and put your hand in mine

We'll tear 'em up and turn 'em over

'Cause we're the children of the revolution

Ziggy looked me in the eye and said revolution

Never let the spirit die revolution

It's only just a quarter mile to the revolution

And all that they will tell you

Is what they'd have you to believe

But when your eyes are open

This is what you see

You see that all the leaves are falling

And there's no moisture in the tree

So let's just light a fire underneath it

'Cause we're the children of the revolution

Ziggy looked me in the eye and said revolution

Never let the spirit die revolution

It's only just a quarter mile to the revolution

No I don't wanna wait a while for the revolution

It's only just a quarter mile to the revolution
