Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
Don't you know
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
(Like a whisper)
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
Cause finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
Don't you know
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
(Don't you know)
(Don't you know)
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
(Like a whisper)
