Nina Simone Lyrics

"Revolution, Pts. 1, 2" lyrics


Oh we got a revolution
I see ...

Helo, hold it...
(speaks....)

.... start again

And now we got a revolution
Cause i see the face of things to come

Yeah, the Constitution
Well, my friend, its gonna have to bend
Im here to tell you about destruction
Of all the evil that will have to end.

Some folks are gonna get the notion
I know they'll say im preachin hate
But if i have to swim the ocean
Well i would just to communicate
Its not as simple as talkin jive
The daily struggle just to stay alive

Singin about a revolution
Because were talkin about a change
Its more than just evolution
Well you know, you got to clean your brain
The only way that we can stand in fact
Is when you get your foot off our back
