Talkin' Bout A Revolution
(Tracy Chapman)
Don't you know, their talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know, they're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around, waiting for a promotion
Don't you know, their talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
Poor people gonna rise up and take what's theirs
Don't you know you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Oh I said you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' about revolution
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about revolution oh no, talkin' about revolution oh no
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around, waiting for a promotion
Don't you know, their talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' about revolution
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about revolution oh no, talkin' about revolution oh no
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around, waiting for a promotion
Don't you know, their talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' about revolution
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about revolution oh no, talkin' about revolution oh no
Talkin' about revolution oh no.
