People been burning their books in the street. The thing about history is it repeats
The proletariat still cater to the bourgeois. Smoke and mirrors keep you where you belong
I was told there would be a revolution before too long
But another doggone day is gone. Is there nothing to be done
I'll keep fighting, but the war's already won
You must obey, for we are here to keep the peace. We pollute the soil, blood and oil, thought police
Don't question your government, make a politician god. No democracy, just a facade
I still hope there will be a revolution before too long
But another doggone day is gone And nothing has been done
I'll keep fighting, but the war's already won
Stand by me to change things one by one. Cause if we don't combine against the party line
What will we give our daughters and sons? I was shown I could start a revolution
It won't take long, and I won't be your doggone pawn. There is so much to be done
I will fight till the war has been won
