Revolution Lyrics
[verse]
Peace takes a taxi
To the underground
I wanna love the world
But I don't know how
Blame it on the d.j.
Playin' all the fast songs
Ain't spinnin' anything
That I can sing along
[chorus]
So if you know the words
Then try to sing along
And when you get the beat
Grab a hammer, bang a gong
Cuz you don't got to fight
Or make yourself belong
To be a revolution, yeah
To be a revolution
[verse]
If you wanna learn
To play the rock guitar
Then thrown down your guns
And come be a star
You got to begin
With who you know you are
To be a revolution
[bridge]
Cuz the time is right
To cross that line
To let love find a way
[chorus]
Alright
[chorus x3]
Peace takes a taxi
To the underground
I wanna love the world
But I don't know how
Blame it on the d.j.
Playin' all the fast songs
Ain't spinnin' anything
That I can sing along
So if you know the words
Then try to sing along
And when you get the beat
Grab a hammer, bang a gong
Cuz you don't got to fight
Or make yourself belong
To be a revolution, yeah
To be a revolution
If you wanna learn
To play the rock guitar
Then thrown down your guns
And come be a star
You got to begin
With who you know you are
To be a revolution
Cuz the time is right
To cross that line
To let love find a way

I think this song is saying that to change the world, you can't just sit on the sidelines. If you want things to change, you've got to jump in, join the crowd of people who ARE trying to change the world. Nothing happens if nothing is being done!
yes true songgrl20.... i think so too.... and i love this song so much... great tune..... nice msg!! ock on joc!!
OH MY GOODNESS PEOPLE!! There's a really big mistake in this version of the lyrics! its not
'cause you gotta fight or make yourself belong'
its 'Cause you don't got to fight or makeyourself belong'.
For me the important message in this song is that it isn't about going along with the crowd - the thing about being a revolutionist is that you don't have to try and fit in with everybody else
