            Cm        G#
You've been kept down
            Fm            D#  G#
You've been pushed 'round
            Cm      G#
You've been lied to
            Fm         D# G#
You've been fed truths

Who's making your decisions?
You or your religion
Your government, your countries
You patriotic junkies

Chorus:

Where's the revolution?

Come on, people

Come on, people

You're letting me down

You've been pissed on
For too long
Your rights abused
Your views refused

They manipulate and threaten
With terror as a weapon
Scare you till you're stupefied
Wear you down until you're on their side
