Flogging Molly

Flogging Molly - Revolution lyrics

rate me

I spent twenty-seven years in this factory

And the boss man says, 'hey you're not what we need'

The penguins in the suits they know nothing but greed

it's a solitary life when you've mouths to feed

But who cares about us?

Now I'm back on the streets

With my hands held shut

I'm a workingman without any work

Well is this the way it's meant to be

Because I signed on for the American Dream

Now, I write my name to the welfare scheme

The money in the bank, it's history

So take me down to where the worlds collide

And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied

So let the Revolution begin

Now I drag these bones

'Cross the barren land

Where once a city, now an outstretched hand

We can't lose our sense of dignity

While the fat-faced cats lap up the cream

Another disappearing act falls up their sleeves

While the shirts on our back seek refugee

So take me down to where the worlds collide

And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied

'Cause there'll come a day

When all of us will show, we won't be afraid

Although we're crashing, we won't burn

Let the Revolution begin

I spent twenty-seven years in this factory

And the boss man says, 'hey you're not what we need'

The penguins in the suits they know nothing but greed

it's a solitary life when you've mouths to feed

So take me down to where the worlds collide

And leave me here 'til I'm satisfied

Do take me down to where the worlds divide

And leave me here I won't compromise

'Cause there'll come a day

When all of us will show, we won't be afraid

'Cause from these ashes we will grow

So let the Revolution begin...
