David Byrne - The Revolution lyrics
[David Byrne - The Revolution lyrics]
Amplifiers and old guitars
Country music sung in bars
And when she sings, the revolution's near
Beauty holds the microphone
And watches as we stumble home
And she can see the revolution now
Dirt and fish and trees and houses
Smoke and hands up women's blouses
Not like I expected it would be
Bubbles pop in every size
It's analyzed and criticized
And beauty knows that it is almost here
Beauty goes to her address
She shuts the door and climbs the stairs
And when she sleeps, the revolution grows
Beauty rests on mattress springs
Wearing just her underthings
And when she wakes, the revolution's here
And when she wakes, the revolution's here
Country music sung in bars
And when she sings, the revolution's near
Beauty holds the microphone
And watches as we stumble home
And she can see the revolution now
Dirt and fish and trees and houses
Smoke and hands up women's blouses
Not like I expected it would be
Bubbles pop in every size
It's analyzed and criticized
And beauty knows that it is almost here
Beauty goes to her address
She shuts the door and climbs the stairs
And when she sleeps, the revolution grows
Beauty rests on mattress springs
Wearing just her underthings
And when she wakes, the revolution's here
And when she wakes, the revolution's here
