Welcome to My Revolution |
These endless broadcasts into the night |
Petty seizures of money and drugs |
By some official or unauthorized thugs |
Now it’s gone, the whole world’s gone |
There’s the army at the front door, guerrillas in back |
Why do I always have to take up sides |
I had no plans to be conscripted today |
I am no use to them anyway |
So what the hell’s going on |
When they took my bed for the good of the state |
I had to rest my head and took to levitation |
Welcome to my revolution |
Every morning they confer with the press |
Just to point a few fingers |
Fix the blame for this mess |
The spokesmen waffle and the jerk-offs complain |
In a stream of rhetoric |
Piss themselves down the drain |
Then it’s time to go home |
Time to go home |
What will they say when it’s gone |
The whole world’s gone |
So they call a cease fire to bury the dead |
And just delay it for an hour or so |
Loose talk of cowards and leaders that lied |
What does it matter once we’re vaporized |
Say what the hell’s going on |
Then it got so bad I couldn’t breathe the air |
So I became my own church and begged for sanctuary |
Welcome to my revolution |
This is the dream that I have every night |
I wake up screaming to the left and the right |
Is this my vision of the end of the world |
The faces looked smoldered, the edges are curled |
Tell me what is the reason we can’t look at ourselves |
And realize everybody creates his own hell |
And if we put it together to make them all real |
And then forget how to think, forget how to feel |
Until it’s gone, the whole world’s gone |
Are we damned if we do and damned if we don’t |
Could we be suckered into thinking that |
Or get too greedy, afraid of the loss |
And wind up fighting for a worthless cause |
What if we died and had to come back |
How may times would we have to go 'round |
What if tomorrow was the end of the line |
Don’t want to feel like I wasted my time |
So what the hell’s going on |
When the noise gets so dense |
You can’t hear yourself think |
We got the spirit world on a telephone link |
So welcome to my revolution |
