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
Cryin' at the doorstep of
Those armies of salvation
Wasting time in
The unemployment lines
Sittin' around wait
For a promotion

Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout
A revolution?
It sounds like a whisper

Poor people are
Gonna raise up
And get their share
Poor people are
Gonna raise up
And take what's theirs

Do you know you better
Run (x12)
Oh I said you better
Run (x12)

'Cause 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
Cryin' at the doorstep of
Those armies of salvation
Wasting time in
The unemployment lines
Sittin' around
Wait for a promotion

Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout
A revolution?
It sounds like a whisper

'Cause 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
Talkin' 'bout a revolution
Talkin' 'bout a revolution
Talkin' 'bout a revolution
