A revolution never come with a warning
|
A revolution never sends you an omen
|
A revolution just arrived like the morning
|
Ring the alarm we come to wake up the snoring
|
|
They tellin' you to worry about the future
|
They tellin' you to never worry about the torture
|
They tellin' you that you'll never see the horror
|
Spend it all today and we will bill you tomorrow
|
Three piece suits and bank accounts in Bahamas
|
Wall street crime will never send you to the slammer
|
Tell all the children in the arms of their mummas
|
The F-15 is a homocide bomber
|
|
TV commercials for a popping pill culture
|
Drug companies circling like a vulture
|
An Iraqi babies with a G.I. Joe father
|
Ten years from now is anybody gonna bother?
|
|
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo
|
Here we come here we come
|
Fire, yo, yo , yo, yo
|
Revolution a comin'
|
Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
|
|
Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
|
Everyone addicted to the same nicotine
|
Everyone addicted to the same gasoline
|
Everyone addicted to a technicolour screen
|
Everybody tryin' to get their hands on the same green
|
From the banks of the river to the banks of the greedy
|
All the riches taken back by needy
|
We come from the country and we come from the city
|
You play us on the record, you can play us on the CD
|
All the shit you've given us is fertilizer
|
The seeds that we planted you can never brutalize them
|
Tell the corporation they can never globalize it
|
Like Peter Tosh said Legalize it
|
Girls and boys hear the bass and treble
|
Rumble in the speakers and it make you wanna rebel
|
Throw your hands up, take it to another level
|
And you can never, ever, ever make a deal with the devil
|
|
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo
|
Here we come here we come
|
Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
|
Revolution a comin'
|
Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
|
Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
|

Yell Fire!
