Revolution
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You say you want a revolution, well you know
We all wanna change the world
You tell me that it's evolution, well you know
We all wanna change the world
When you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
You say you've got a real solution, well you know
We'd all love to see your plan
You ask me for a contribution, well you know
We're all doin' what we can
If you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is buddy, you'll have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
You say you'll change the constitution, well you know
We all wanna change it here
You tell me it's the institution, well you know
You'd better free your mind instead
If you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Don't you know it's gonna be alright, alright, alright
