Have you heard the word?
|
The revolution's over.
|
Now the anger's disappeared
|
And the rebels are much older.
|
And the schools and universities
|
Are turning out a brand new breed of young conservatives.
|
|
Get yourself a brand new scene,
|
Keep your collars white and clean,
|
It's time to come and join the young conservatives.
|
|
Revolution used to be cool,
|
But now it's out of fashion.
|
Politeness is the rule,
|
And not an angry young man's passion.
|
And they've used up all the alternatives,
|
And they're rushing down the street to join
|
the young conservatives.
|
Conservatives.
|
|
Ban the bomb, oh how contemporary,
|
In your parents' car.
|
Another chip off the block, is that all that you are?
|
Look at all the young conservatives
|
Hanging out in the bars.
|
It's got to stop before it goes to fa-fa-fa-fa-far.
|
|
Get yourself some new attire,
|
Set your sights a little higher,
|
You're going to join the young conservatives.
|
|
The establishment is winning,
|
Now the battle's nearly won.
|
The rebels are conforming,
|
See the father, now the sons.
|
All the urgency and energy
|
Have turned into complacency,
|
Now the schools and universities are turning out a
|
brand new breed of young conservatives.
|
Conservatives.
|
|
Rebel, rebel found a cause,
|
Now it's Hampstead not East End
|
And now he's such a well respected man.
|
The only action that you see
|
Is in the Sunday Times.
|
Content to sit in bed and read between the lines.
|
|
Rebel, rebel join the young conservatives.
|
Be a devil join the new conservatives.
|
|
It's a victory for order
|
Now they've beaten everyone.
|
The rebels are too old now,
|
And the young just want to be young.
|
All the urgency and energy
|
Have turned into complacency.
|
Now the schools and universities are turning out a
|
brand new breed of young conservatives.
|
Conservatives.
|
|
Look at all the young conservatives.
|
Look at all the young conservatives.
