You say you want a revolution
I heard this Beatles song on the radio the other day and it struck me how appropriate it is for the Bush Regime.



You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world

But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can

But when you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right

You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead

But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
All right, all right...

2. Too bad the sheeple are too complacent and docile...
to ever get out of their Lay_Z_boy chairs and off their fat asses
to do anything about it...

4. Yeah, but how
Yes, they may be complacent & docile they always have been that way. But what of the rest of us who want to activate? At this point, they have all the power & the Patriot Act behind them. Are you really ready to risk ALL that you have for the cause??

Think about that one seriously!! Are you there yourself ready & willing to fight for your beliefs??

3. Great ABB-esque line here...
"But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out"
;)

"Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
All right, all right..."
:hi:
