Revolution Songtext
von Stephane Malca
Revolution Songtext
In the Chicago moonlight 1967
In the Cleveland flats 1974
On stage Osaka 1973
In all these places the perennial nature
Of equality was plainly expressed
And we discovered that laws are only laws when they can be changed
I remember that Elizabeth she said
Make laws against regret
Not laws against exchange
′Cause if the tide stopped coming in and coming out
We'd never know the waves
We′d never know the waves
One man's loss is another man's gain
Tides go in and roll out
Nothing stays the same
And if the scenes of loss and gain are all replayed
Will we say it was a fair game?
Will we say it was a fair game?
Will we say it was a fair game?
Well it′s dog eat dog in the streets and the avenues
One man makes a law what does it mean to you?
What could the man expect the citizen to do?
Well that′s revolution through and through
Hey anybody got a hand to hold?
We're gonna march the boulevards and we′re gonna be bold
I wanna see the world turn around right before I'm old
God said love thy neighbor as thyself or so I′m told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
He said love thy neighbor or so I′m told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
One man′s loss is another man′s gain
The tide goes in and tide comes out
And nothing stays the same
And if the scenes of loss and gain are all replayed
Now will we say it was a fair game?
Well it's dog eat dog on the streets and the avenues
That one man makes a law what does this mean to you?
What could the man expect that the citizens would do?
Well that′s revolution through and through
Through and through
In the Cleveland flats 1974
On stage Osaka 1973
In all these places the perennial nature
Of equality was plainly expressed
And we discovered that laws are only laws when they can be changed
I remember that Elizabeth she said
Make laws against regret
Not laws against exchange
′Cause if the tide stopped coming in and coming out
We'd never know the waves
We′d never know the waves
One man's loss is another man's gain
Tides go in and roll out
Nothing stays the same
And if the scenes of loss and gain are all replayed
Will we say it was a fair game?
Will we say it was a fair game?
Will we say it was a fair game?
Well it′s dog eat dog in the streets and the avenues
One man makes a law what does it mean to you?
What could the man expect the citizen to do?
Well that′s revolution through and through
Hey anybody got a hand to hold?
We're gonna march the boulevards and we′re gonna be bold
I wanna see the world turn around right before I'm old
God said love thy neighbor as thyself or so I′m told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
He said love thy neighbor or so I′m told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
He said love thy neighbor or so I'm told
One man′s loss is another man′s gain
The tide goes in and tide comes out
And nothing stays the same
And if the scenes of loss and gain are all replayed
Now will we say it was a fair game?
Well it's dog eat dog on the streets and the avenues
That one man makes a law what does this mean to you?
What could the man expect that the citizens would do?
Well that′s revolution through and through
Through and through
