Viva la revolution - Die Toten Hosen

It's a soft boiled egg each morning

And then walkies with the dog

It's two hours sitting in a traffic jam

Before you clock in for your job

Every day plays out the same way

Then you clock out and go home

And every night you watch the same old shite

On the same old TV shows

You were once a teenage rebel

And you told yourself back then

You'd never let yourself be caged in

By the old establishment

In the bars and in the marches and protest groups

At every anarchist meeting

You were the first to put your hand up

And shout "Down with everything "

Viva la Revolution

The revolution is on

Viva la Revolution

Long live the revolution

You had your Che Guevara poster

Your books by Marx and Mao

And you got yourself a new haircut

To help bring the system down

You dressed up for the battle

Like a soldier from Babylon

And as you joined the fight you knew that you were right

And everybody else was wrong

Viva la Revolution

The revolution is on

Viva la Revolution

Long live the revolution

Viva la Revolution

Viva la Revolution

Well you were once a freedom fighter

And you thank God that you won

Now from your semi in suburbia

You're free to just have fun

But last night you heard noises

So you stumbled out of bed

There was graffiti painted all over your house

And this is what it said:

Viva la Revolution

The revolution is on

Viva la Revolution

Long live the revolution

Viva la Revolution

Viva la Revolution
