lyrics

Are we the revolution or just alcoholics? I’ll talk anarchism lets abolish the pollies but I always have a beer in my hand. How can I fight when I can hardly stand? So lets sing about drugs and changing the world. If only there was one that could do it. Acid in the sixties they kinda got close besides burnouts and flashbacks the rest is a ghost but it’s not my revolution if I can’t dance so I’ll eat drugs and party at every chance. Your utopia is not my own but if we work together we can build a home. Are we the revolution or just taking the piss? I can’t really hear over this shitty music but I think you’re making pretty good points you’re just hard to understand you smoke too many joints. Keep singing about changing the world if only there was a song that could do it. I’d say lets take down the state but by the end of the song we’d be too drunk to fight. If I wasn’t blackout drunk tomorrow I’d be at work and I’d rather be spewing in a toilet than sweating in a shed for minimum wage. So won’t you put your black mask on for me, smash some windows and a racists face. Keep locking yourself to machinery knowing what you do is right and we’re on your side but for now we fight with different tactics, stealing, growing food and getting better with practice. So when you’ve taken down the government I’ll have some food for us to eat and a beer to drink.
