Revolution Fever

Revolution Fever

There’s a man in a trench coat lurking outside my door.
He’s sneaking around and peeking in I’m sure.
These days public and private are one and the same.
There are crooks in the senate and they know my name!

We’re gonna march the streets to stir up hell
cause I’ve seen the truth and I’m gonna tell.
The Revolution Fever’s going around the block,
but tonight brothers and sisters, we rock!

Well if you scream “freedom” in a large crowd,
the CIA will hunt you down.
But if you want peace in this age of war,
then you better stand up and show ‘em who you are!

Jesus was a prophet and John Lennon was too
both wanted peace and equal rights for you!
We can end our troubles, let’s just give it a go.
The revolution’s coming, this shit’s ready to blow! 

Stand up for your rights! Stand up for yourself!
They might call you a menace and give you hell,
but don’t let it get ya.  don’t let it hold you down,
other’s will follow, cause the Fever’s going ‘round

And ain’t nothing gonna stop us now!
No, nothing’s gonna hold us down!
No, nothing’s gonna stop us now!
No, nothing’s gonna hold us down!

Now, tomorrow we march to stir up hell!
Cause we know the truth and we’re gonna tell
The Revolution Fever’s going around the block
but tonight brothers and sisters, we rock!
