Revolution Lyrics - Last Of The Independents - Pretenders

Cats like me and you 

Have got laws 

That they adhere to 

Laws outside the laws 

As laid down 

By those we don't subscribe to 

The world is getting stranger 

But we'll never lose heart 

We can't just wait for the 

Old guard to die 

Before we can 

Make a new start 

Bring on the revolution 

(keep the pressure on) 

I want to die for something 

Bring on the revolution 

I want to die for something 

Bring on the revolution 

I want to die for something 

Bring on the revolution 

I don't want to die for nothing 

For every freedom fighter 

I want to hold on tighter 

To the hope and will you gave 

You were the brave 

You were the brave 

And one day 

When I hear your children sing 

Freedom will ring 

Freedom! 

When we watch the children play 

Remember 

How the privileged classes grew 

And from this day 

We set out 

To undo what won't undo 

Looking for the grand 

In the minute 

Every breath justifies 

Every step that we take 

To remove what the powers that be 

Can't prove 

And the children will 

Understand why
