The Revolution Is Never Coming by The Red Paintings Lyrics

You want it
You need it bad
There's nothing better then this.. this
And I don't care if your looking at me
And thinking I'm wasting my dreams
Look at us now we're all gunned down
My father turns and the priests holds nothing
Covered on the walls
The words of war
A Revolution Never Coming!
And I wish you'd been struck with blindness
Before your eyes saw what there about to see
Please..
To an unknown destination dear future
But your scientists will never kill me!
Look the good soldiers
They simply follow orders
Screams die down
Papa see you soon I promise
Covered on the walls
The words of war
A revolutions never coming!
Shh don't tell anyone...
The Catholics
They think the Protestants knew
Could be the Christians!
Who miss the train choo-choo
But I hear Robert Smith
Call out to Björk
Lets go to mars
And fuck it all again
All good things must come to and end
I tell myself
Carefully picking up a crumb of bread
In reeking soil
Concentration camps
Sold my faith, stand forward Japan
Do all bad things come to an end
Just as well
God must of heard my prayers
The very next day
The new guy smiled
The new women shook
And the night retired
And the night retired...
Hey! Here's a lost story
Tell it to your kids!
Live without fear
Say your governments boring
Never be the first
You'll never be the last
Burn the KKK
Kill the Kamikaze stories
Don't be misled
It's not a revolution!
Here to save your soul
It brings you no solution
It's all about power
Power over money
Product's falling
Drugs making money in our country
Salute them
Salute you
Your revolution's never coming
Your revolution's never coming
Your revolution..
My soul dear me [the revolutions never coming]
My soul dear me [the revolutions never coming]
My soul dear me [the revolutions never coming]
My soul dear meeeee!!
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution..

Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never...
The revolution.. is never coming
Return to your homes, for your protection
Watch your television sets, for your protection
Return to your minimum wage jobs, for your protection
The Government believes in you, for your protection
The Police are here, for your protection
Refugee Camps are in place, for your protection
We report the news, for your protection
Experiments are done on animals, for your protection
Barbed wire is in place, for your protection
The election was rigged, for our protection
The coalition of the willing is here, for your protection
Up and down now here you go
We've told you all you need, you need to know
So fuck it up and down now here you go
We've told you all you need, you need to go. [The revolutions never coming]
So fuck it up and down here you go
We tell you all you need, you need to know
So fuck it up and down here we go
We'll tell you.. ohh noooo [The Revolution's never coming!]
The Revolution's Never Coming!
The Revolution's Never Coming!
The Revolution's Never Coming!
My soul dear me
My soul dear me
My soul dear me
My soul dear meeeee!!
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never Coming
Your Revolution's Never...
[Screams appear at the realization there may be no revolution]
