Revolution from Bad Transmission by Bad Transmission

The revolution awaits, restless in the wings
there's a change in the air - can you sense it in the wind?
you can turn a blind eye, tip your stetson, drink your gin
'cos you won't feel better if you see the mess we're in
a lot of stressful things seem to mould your thoughts and
make you lose your outlook of what's most important
but how can I complain about a school that the state runs
when hundreds of millions don't even have education
don't get me wrong, I try to not let it bother me
but when half the children in the world live in poverty
how can I not be? How can I not see
just 'cos I've never met 'em, don't mean they're not real
look at how we live, something's not right
got the funds for fights, but not the hungry... right
when I say "we" I don't mean England or Britain
mean the whole of mankind as a collective organism
mean the whole world, every single person on this planet
gonna have to come together if we're gonna make it happen
if we're gonna live in a world we can be proud of
non-money based and the people have the power


When I say Revolution don't think I'm talking about
walking out with a torch and scorching a Lord's house
or pissed off pitchfork wielding violent mobs
fighting lots, screaming the odds out like mindless yobs
stumbling through the streets like bulls in china shops
that's not what it is, it's about trying to stop
the phony motherfuckers who are right at the top
with their titles and whatnot, eyes on the lot
it's not the people you can see, they're behind the scenes
the faceless puppeteers of a blinded machine
it's about being able to express your views
and unbiased TV crews telling the news
every single person having food, clothes and shelter
Mother Nature's in danger and no one's going to help her
