Cover art for Revolution lyrics by John Butler Trio

I think you're pretty spot on, jack! Similarly, it's about people revolting against corrupt society ("pay off those losers we elect to lead") and when he says "Tell me when you think we'll just stand up? Say enough is enough is enough" - he's saying, when will we stop sweeping it under the carpet, when we will we stand up for our rights as civilians, and stop these leaders from ruling us which way they please?

Powerful messages. One thing I love about JBT, is that they aren't afraid to speak their minds.
