Song Lyrics

Daddy X is like a rebel
I mean goddamn you gotta have big time revolution era
The revolution will not be televised
I repeat, the revolution will not be televised

Right, you say you're right
I say you're wrong
You destroy lives, you build up bombs
Spin all your lies, I say we're spun

You call it war, it's just begun
Revolution
(X a lot)
We fight with thoughts, you fight with guns
You make the laws, fill all the jails

Fill us with fear, that's where you failed
Revolution
(X a lot)
Revolution revolution
Revolution, revolution

Lies, power, destruction, a world of corruption
Corrupting, controlling us all with their
Lies, the bombs keep exploding
The earth is eroding

They keep on reloading, and firing lies
Stand at salute and then cheer
When they shoot down my lady [unverified]
So what will it take for this whole thing to break

For People to awake and realize, it's all lies
They got us believing, but always deceiving
And what we're receiving, is nothing but lies
We need to increase peace, we need to stop all the wars

Innocent people are dying for no reason, what for?
Lies, the shit we keep making
The bombs we keep dropping
We're killing each other

We're the people who could stop them
Who're they trying to fool?
We the leaders of the new school
We fight for our rights

Realize the governments full of lies
Don't ask us why, you can see it in our eyes
Who is he? Who is she?
You got me screaming to myself

Lies, smile in your face while they're laughing inside
Tell you what you wanna hear but its all a bunch of lies, lies
Tax type, no hope for senior citizens, social security
And health benefits being questioned

Its all bullshit, it's just a big scam
Uncle Sam got us fighting family wars on foreign land
Mass destruction, where they at?
How many soldiers gotta die before we bring America's kids back?

This is a freedom song, songs of freedom
Stand up for your rights, right means not wrong
One life, one chance, one earth, one people
You decide

Right, you say you're right
I say you're wrong
You destroy lives, you build up bombs
Spin all your lies, I say we're spun

You call it war, it's just begun
Now we'll take it back
Sick of the lies, the lies and the hate
Sick of the game you like to play
Well, it's coming your way
