Mao Tse Tung Said |
| Mao Tse-Tung said change must come |
| Change must come thru the barrel of a gun |
| Not thru talkin' and not through waitin' |
| And sittin' around just contemplatin' the facts |
| 'Cos we know what they are |
| So let Mao Tse Tung be your guidin' star |
| Pick up a gun and learn how to fight |
| All thru the day and all thru the night |
| 'Til come the day when the last fight’s won |
| I want you to listen, son |
| 'Cos Mao Tse Tung said change must come |
| Thru the barrel of a gun |
| I want you to listen, son |
| Change must come |
| Change must come thru the barrel of a gun |
| Mao Tse Tung said, «change must come…» |
| Mao Tse Tung said, «change must come…» |
| Mao Tse Tung said, «change must come…» |
| «Change must come thru the barrel of a gun» |
| — Okay. |
| What was the basic premise of Mao? |
| Mao Tse Tung said there’s only one |
| way a revolution can come. |
| Do you know, Millie? |
| How did Mao Tse Tung say the |
| only way you can bring a revolution and keep it? |
| — Where you— onliest way I think you can keep it is by being at peace and being |
| honorable |
| — Oh, shit, I ain’t— no— «being at peace»? |
| Mao Tse Tung said that? |
| — Oh— |
| — No no no no— |
| — Wait a minute— Oh— |
| — —he's the head of China. |
| He’s the head of the Revolution of China |
| — No, I’m sorry |
| — He marched 6000 people… on the Long March |
| — I had my mind on something else |
| — Okay then, wha— wha— what’d he say? |
| There only one way you can bring about a |
| revolution for people |
| — Only way you can— only way you can bring it on, that by— is by killing |
| — Well, what— yes, that’s okay, I’m going to let you pass it —but what’d he say? |
| He had a nice little phrase that everybody should know. |
| «Change only comes—» |
| — Oh— |
| — You got it. |
| «Change comes through…» |
| — «—through— by a barrel of gun.» |
| — That's right, senior. |
| And that’s good. |
| Cause you, by rights, would have every |
| reason to forget some things. |
| «Change must come through the barrel of gun,» |
| said Mao Tse Tung. |
| This place would be a paradise tomorrow if every department |
| had a supervisor with a sub machine gun |
| Let them hear it in the night! |
| Yes, we’ll fight! |
| Let the night roar, |
| because they can hear us, they know we mean it. |
| We’ll kill them if they come! |
| Mao Tse Tung said |
| Change must come |
| Mao Tse Tung said |
| Change must come |
| Mao Tse Tung said |
| Change must come |
| Change must come through the barrel of a gun |
