ELTON JOHN - Up The Revolution lyrics

rate me

Written by Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb and Maurice Gibb

From the album "Bunbury Tails"

I tell you the truth can be painful

And the mainstream of life can be cruel

If you believe in your chances today

you could be a fool, don't you be a fool, oh no

Revenge is mine, oh no

A case of do or die

Gather round if you want to be free

Sing the words to this song

We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me

When achieving the impossible is a possibility

It's a time for any loser to win, it's how you play the game

Don't you start the revolution without me in another name

Stand by your bunbury notions

That is how you get to be strong

Now you come here from over the sea

Where you don't belong, no you don't belong, oh no

Friend of mine, oh no

A case of do or die

Gather round if you want to be free

Sing the words to this song

We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me

When achieving the impossible is a possibility

It's a time for any loser to win, and you can overthrow

We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow

Oh no, revenge is mine, oh no

A case of do or die

Gather round if you want to be free

Sing the words to this song

We go up the revolution, go down to find a brighter day

If you dream the unapproachable dream, you find a better way

If it's just another corner you're in, then you can overthrow

We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow
