Lyrics
World Turns a 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.
Joseph Lee lost his job today
The man's got so much to lose
Wonders what his wife and kids will say
It's a common situation for someone in his shoes
Ever since his eighteenth birthday he's been out here on the clock
He's been moving up and inside the white man's machine
For twenty years he worked hard
To make it to the top
Still the boss man couldn't say why he chose Joseph Lee
No one says a thing around here in this small town
We're all scratching for the same dirty workerman's pay
I haven't lived as long as he
But I grew up with the same dreams
I hope the lord forgives me
If I look the other way
But the world turns a revolution
Turns around each and every day
Maybe someday we will find a new solution
For the changes the world goes through today
The world is upside down
Things just don't seem to make sense
No one sees the clock as it unwinds
Greed and lust and gain
Fuel the filth of the machine
As the right thing to do
Becomes the last thing on our minds
Chorus
No one says a thing here in this small town
We're all scratching for the same dirty workers pay
I haven't lives as long as he
But I grew up with the same dreams
I hope the lord forgives me if I look the other way
Look the other way
Chorus
