Outside Providence movie - Won't Get Fooled Again lyrics

rate me

Song by The Who<br /><br>

We'll be fighting in the streets<br>

With our children at our feet<br>

And the morals that they worship will be gone<br>

And the men who spurred us on<br>

Sit in judgment of all wrong<br>

They decide and the shotgun sings the song<br>

<br>

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution<br>

Take a bow for the new revolution<br>

Smile and grin at the change all around<br>

Pick up my guitar and play<br>

Just like yesterday<br>

Then I'll get on my knees and pray<br>

We don't get fooled again<br>

<br>

The change, it had to come<br>

We knew it all along<br>

We were liberated from the fold, that's all<br>

And the world looks just the same<br>

And history ain't changed<br>

'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war<br>

<br>

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution<br>

Take a bow for the new revolution<br>

Smile and grin at the change all around<br>

Pick up my guitar and play<br>

Just like yesterday<br>

Then I'll get on my knees and pray<br>

We don't get fooled again<br>

No, no!<br>

<br>

I'll move myself and my family aside<br>

If we happen to be left half alive<br>

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky<br>

Though I know that the hypnotized never lie<br>

Do ya?<br>

<br>

There's nothing in the streets<br>

Looks any different to me<br>

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye<br>

And the parting on the left<br>

Are now parting on the right<br>

And the beards have all grown longer overnight<br>

<br>

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution<br>

Take a bow for the new revolution<br>

Smile and grin at the change all around<br>

Pick up my guitar and play<br>

Just like yesterday<br>

Then I'll get on my knees and pray<br>

We don't get fooled again<br>

Don't get fooled again<br>

No, no!<br>

<br>

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!<br>

<br>

Meet the new boss<br>

Same as the old boss<br>

<br>
