"Revolution" lyrics

"Revolution"
(originally by Tracy Chapman)

Don't you know
They're talking about a revolution?
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
Talking about a revolution?
It sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know
We're talking about a revolution?
It sounds like a whisper

Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs

Don't you know you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Don't you know you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn
I'm talking 'bout a revolution, no no
Finally the tables are starting to turn
I'm talking 'bout a revolution, oh no

Standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know
We're talking about a revolution?
It sounds like a whisper

And finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking 'bout a revolution, oh no
Don't you know
We're talking about a revolution?
