The Revolution Will Eat It's Children (Anthem for Uncle Bob) [Live]

歌詞

He’s a leader, talks of freedom He knows the power of the Big Idea He’s a dealer, he’s a seeker Of the power that comes from fear He gave his life to the party machine Holding on to a secret dream He knows better than anyone Power comes from the barrel of a gun And he’s rising up against them now And he’s rising up in country and town Rising up against them now, rising up The revolution will eat its children I see the river of dreams run dry I’m so thankful I got to love you You are the reason I survive The promise of a better life for all The promise of freedom from hunger and war So many rose up to answer the call And so many are no longer here at all The hopes of yesterday drowning in shifting sands ‘cause something strange is going on across the land Preaching water but drinking wine Power gets us every time The more things change The more they stay the same And they’re rising up against him now And they’re rising up in country and town And they’re rising up, rising up The revolution will eat its children I see the river of dreams run dry I’m so thankful I got to love you You are the reason I survive Free them from this hunger, Free!
