Revolutionaries Lyrics – The Size Queens

Revolutionaries Lyrics by The Size Queens

Okay, now, don’t make me kill ya
Revolutionaries
Revolution, revolution, revolution, revolution number 9
Revolution number 5

I missed
Revolution number 4, 3, 2, 1
Revolutionaries
Don’t have names

But you can be certain that
They’re not all the same
Except that their aims
Will likely remain

Unfulfilled
And that they’ll be unremembered
If they’re killed
Which gives them a certain

Poetic dignity
And that is good to have
Still I don’t care for terrorists
Some got lost

They don’t have that romantic kick
Like they once did when I was a kid
Now, I don’t care about heaven or hell
You can always dig the bones up where they fell

And it seems like we’re collecting them
Underground
And that they’ll always be around
But we’re still sharing life

And I wish that some change could come of it
But nowadays you don’t want to bear the backlash
It’s dangerous
To think about the songs that you grew up with

‘Cause there is no Angela Davis and no Ho Chi Minh
And no singers who can make us believe in them again
Or believe in anyone
Or believe there were

And every city is a prison
With surveillance on the street
You can walk around in circles
They’ll keep recording your feet

And the police come around
And they beat you down
‘Cause you walked around
It’s suspiciously the same

Suspiciously the same
Every night I go to sleep
I hear the bombings behind the hills
I hear the sound of narrow wars

And simple criminality
And everything is chance
And none appeals to me
You just put in your earbuds

Close your eyes
And sip expensive teas
Then start counting backwards
Until you reach

Infinity
And every city is a prison
With surveillance on the street
You can walk around in circles

They’ll keep recording your feet
And the police come around
And beat you down
‘Cause you walked around

It’s suspiciously the same
Suspiciously the same
And you wake up every day
Because you have to make a living

And you have dinners and appointments
People your friends want you to meet
And you’re sitting there at the table
But you’re thinking about your feet

And how you walked this very circle just the other day
And no matter how important
Meaning always goes away
Leaving you walking through the city

With nowhere you wanna stay
And every city is a prison
With surveillance on the street
You can walk around in circles

The bodies under your feet
And the police come around
And they beat you down
‘Cause you walked around

It’s suspiciously the same
Suspiciously the same
And every city is a jail
Every city is a cell

But you’d be stupid buying out
When they’ll be giving them away
That’s why
I don’t care about terrorists

I don’t care about heaven or hell
You can always dig the bones up
Where they fell
And it seems like we’re collecting them

Underground
And that they’ll always be around
They’ll always be around
They’ll always be around
