I spent 27 years in this factory
Now the boss man says, "Hey, you′re not what we need"
The penguins in the suits, they know nothing but greedIt's a solitary life when you′ve mouths to feed
But who cares about us?
Now I'm back on the streets
With my hands held shut
I'm a working man, without any work
Well, is this the way it′s meant to be?
Because I signed off for the American Dream
Now, I write my name to the welfare scheme
The money in the bank, well, it′s history
So, take me down to where the worlds collide
And leave me here 'til I′m satisfied
So, let the revolution begin
Now I drag these bones
'Cross the barren land
Where once a city, now an outstretched hand
We can′t lose our sense of dignity
While the fat-faced cats lap up the cream
Another disappearing act falls up their sleeves
While the shirts on our back seek refugee
So, take me down (take me down)
To where the worlds collide (where the worlds collide)
And leave me here (and leave me here), 'til I′m satisfied ('til I'm satisfied)
′Cause there′ll come a day
When all of us will show (we won't be afraid)
Although we′re crashing, we won't burn
Let the revolution, the revolution begin
I spent 27 years in this factory
Now the boss man says, "Hey, you′re not what we need"
The penguins in the suits, they know nothing but greed
It's a solitary life when you′ve mouths to feed
So, take me down (take me down)
To where the worlds collide (where the worlds collide)
And leave me here (leave me here), 'til I'm satisfied (′til I′m satisfied)
Do take me down (take me down)
To where the worlds divide (where the worlds divide)
And leave me here (leave me here), I won't compromise (I won′t compromise)
'Cause there′ll come a day
When all of us will show, we won't be afraid
′Cause from these ashes we will grow
So, let the revolution, the revolution, the revolution begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
