Revolution Today (Lyrics)

1st Verse:

Politics are parlour tricks;
the fight has already been fixed;
no matter who the people choose,
the rich will win; the poor will lose.

They only make a mockery
out of the word Democracy;
keep power under lock and key
and out of reach of you and me.

Chorus:

Let’s start a revolution;
a revolution today.
It’s the only solution;
you know, it’s the only way.

Let’s start a revolution;
a revolution today.
Rewrite the constitution.
Tell me, what do you say?

2nd Verse:

I’ve joined the doubting Thomas’s;
I’m tired of their promises.
They just betray the people’s trust;
those who struggle to earn a crust.

Sick of their tribal rivalry;
their corruption and bribery.
Don’t take a rocket scientist,
to see they’re in the pockets of the rich.

Chorus:

Let’s start a revolution;
a revolution today.
It’s the only solution;
you know, it’s the only way.

Let’s start a revolution;
a revolution today.
Rewrite the constitution.
Tell me, what do you say?
