All the moors are deserted except for the traps And the old school suits under waxed flat caps The crows are in cages and left there to rot And a pointless petition is all that we've got There's sad tombolas for the blue rosettes And the dogs and the bastards at the badger setts We've got culture wars in container ships And a fast approaching apocalypse Let's have a revolution I want a revolution Can't we have a revolution Don't you want a revolution right now There's front row seats for the donor cards With their fast track deals waved past the guards They'll siphon the cash before it gets spent Then punish the tenants for missing their rent There's snubby old snouts in the trough of delights And they're all getting fat on a feast of our rights With culture wars in container ships And a fast approaching apocalypse Let's have a revolution I want a revolution Can't we have a revolution Don't you want a revolution right now Some people say it's ok for one person to own 200,000 acres of land as a result of nothing more than the act of their birth, As though the time passed since it was stolen somehow gives them a right to that earth. Well, what if we took it back and shared it around? In four hundred years time would you agree it was common ground? Or would you cry foul and shout out loud... Let's have a revolution I want a revolution Can't we have a revolution Don't you want a revolution right now

Morpheus 01:48
Somebody somewhere Has opened a door They're falling like rain through a hole in the floor It's all about the miracles The Midas in the touch That slipped through the fingers And promised so much Somebody somewhere Has given their all They're fading like paint on a crumbling wall It's all about reflections The gorgon in the stone That waited and weathered The flesh into the bone Somebody somewhere Has learned to be free They're drowning like children swept out to sea It's all about the tragedy The blackness of the sail That gathered and powered The sadness of the tale

about

Throw the bastards out. Start a new, fairer, sustainable civilisation before it's too late.

Lyrics

All the moors are deserted except for the traps
And the old school suits under waxed flat caps
The crows are in cages and left there to rot
And a pointless petition is all that we've got

There's sad tombolas for the blue rosettes
And the dogs and the bastards at the badger setts
We've got culture wars in container ships
And a fast approaching apocalypse

Let's have a revolution
I want a revolution
Can't we have a revolution
Don't you want a revolution right now

There's front row seats for the donor cards
With their fast track deals waved past the guards
They'll siphon the cash before it gets spent
Then punish the tenants for missing their rent

There's snubby old snouts in the trough of delights
And they're all getting fat on a feast of our rights
With culture wars in container ships
And a fast approaching apocalypse

Let's have a revolution
I want a revolution
Can't we have a revolution
Don't you want a revolution right now

Some people say it's ok for one person to own 200,000 acres of land as a result of nothing more than the act of their birth,
As though the time passed since it was stolen somehow gives them a right to that earth.
Well, what if we took it back and shared it around?
In four hundred years time would you agree it was common ground?

Or would you cry foul and shout out loud...

Let's have a revolution
I want a revolution
Can't we have a revolution
Don't you want a revolution right now
