Dana Bryant - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised lyrics

[Dana Bryant - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised lyrics]

You will not be able to stay home, brother
You will not be able to tune in
Turn off and cop out
You will not be able to lose yourself on
Crack and slip out for
Beer during commercials, because
The revolution will not be televised

The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be brought to you by
Exxon in four parts
Without commercial interruptions
The revolution will not show you pictures
Of Bush blowing a bugle
And leading a charge by
Dick Cheney, General Schwarzkopf
And Dan Quayle to eat
(Debts?) confiscated from the
Freedom National Bank
The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be televised


The revolution will not be brought
To you by Masterpiece Theatre
And will not star Marla Maples as Tom
Cruise or Oprah as Miss Piggie
The revolution will not say Alka
Seltzer to the rescue
The revolution will not Just Do It
The revolution will not make you Slim Fast
Because
The revolution will not be televised, brother

There will be no pictures of you and Shaquan
Pushing that shopping cart down the
Block on a dead run
Or trying to slide that color
TV into a stolen ambulance
CNN will not be able predict the winner at
8: 32 pm on report from 29 districts
The revolution will not be televised

There will be no pictures of LA pigs
(Highballing hands)? on the instant replay
There will be no pictures of LA pigs
(Highballing hands)? on the instant replay
There will be no pictures of Al
Sharpton being run out of (London)?
On a rail with a brand new process
There will be no slow motions or
Still lives of Jesse Jackson
Strolling through the streets
Of Washington DC in a red, black
And green liberation jumpsuit
That he has been saving for
Just the proper occasion

LA Law, Designing Women and ThirtySomething
Will no longer be so damn relevant
And women will not care if Dick finally
Got down with Jane on Twin Peaks
Because we the people will be on the
Streets looking for a brighter day
The revolution will not be televised
There will be no highlights on
The Live at Five
No pictures of Amy Fisher weeping
No closeups of Ivana Trump blowing her nose
The theme song will not be written by
Andrew Lloyd Webber or Francis Scott Key
Nor sung by Billy Joel
Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer
The New Kids On The Block
The revolution will not be televised

The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be right
Back after nation identification
Or a word from our sponsors
You will not have to worry about
(Beating a Bud)
(Dropping in vanish drop-ins)?
(Or popping up and airing out)?
The revolution will not be Just
For The Taste Of It
The revolution will not Wash And Go
The revolution will no Sell Itself

The revolution will not be televised
Will not be televised will not be televised
Will not be televised
The revolution will be LIVE

Don’t leave home without it
