The Day After The Revolution

The dust has settled, replace the bulbs in all the lights

I guess I'll get no sleep tonight

A revoltion happened

Oh sorry, you haven't heard?

We are the children of the new world

If you're quiet you can watch if you like

They say the future's beginning tonight

Whole empires will crumble

Civilizations will fall

Lie on the bed, hear the sound of it all

No anger, no guilt and no sorrow, it sounds unlikely

I know but tomorrow you will wake up and see

That your whole life has changed

Although nothing looks different a revolutions took place

I love the way you do it

I love the way you put them on

You know the answers but you get them wrong

(Just to confuse things)

Why did it seem so difficult to realise a simple truth?

The revolution begins and ends with you

Now all the breakdowns and nightmares look small

Now we decided not to die after all

Because the meek shall inherit absolutely nothing at all

If you stopped being so feeble, you could have so much more

The answer was here all the time, you see

Just how I missed it is a mystery to me

I have waited and waited for this day to arrive

The revolution was televised

Now it's over, bye bye.

It's over, bye bye.

Yeah, we made it.

Just by the skin of our teeth.

Perfection is over

(The Rave is over)

Sheffield is over.

The Fear is over.

Guilt is over

(Please leave the building quietly)

Bergerac is over.

The hangover is over

Men are over

Women are over.

Cholesterol is over.

Tapers are over.

Irony is over.

Bye Bye

Bye Bye
