Don't you know
they're talkin' bout a revolution
it sounds like a whisper
don't you know
they're talkin' about 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 gonna rise up
and get their share
poor people gonna rise up
and take what's theirs
Don't you know
you better run, run, run...
oh i said you better
run, run, run...
Finally the tables are starting to turn
talkin' bout a revolution
finally the tables are starting to turn
talkin' bout a revolution
talkin' bout a revolution
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
Finally the tables are starting to turn
talkin' bout a revolution
finally the tables are starting to turn
talkin' bout a revolution
talkin' bout a revolution
talkin' bout a revolution
