talkin' 'bout a revolution

• 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
  
  poor people gonna rise up
  and get their share
  poor people gonna rise up
  and take what's theirs
  
  don't you know
  you better run, run, run...
  oh i said you better
  run, run, run...
  
  finally the tables are starting to turn
  talkin' bout a revolution
