Yeah!



Calling all the nations, we got to come together, yeah

Children of the future, build a new tomorrow, ooh

You can't tell me what to say or do, like a puppet on a string

I won't show you no prejudice of the colour of your skin



Chorus:

This ain't love, this is war, tell me what we're fighting for

Welcome to the revolution

Do we laugh, do we cry, mama watch your baby die

Welcome to the revolution, yeah, welcome to the revolution



Ruthless politicians, blinding us with their lies

Countdown to destruction, right in front of your eyes

I believe we're running out of time, we gotta make a stand

Only we can turn the world around, the power's in our hands



(chorus)



Welcome to your future, baby, ow!



(Solo)



Oho, gonna fight no more, gonna fight no more, gonna fight no more, oho

Gonna fight no, we'll fight no more, no more - yeah!



They say the world's come tumbling down

The cities burn as we fall to the ground

You wake up screaming in the night

Ghosts to the left and ghosts to the right

The rivers run dry, the sky turns red

Say your prayers 'cos tomorrow we'll be dead

And tell me, God, are we all too late

To save the world from its [dancing] fate



We better listen (repeats out)
