Revolution 4-21 - R.E.M.

Your revolution is a silly idea, yeah

All your friends are feeling mad

It’s like you need a reason to be feeling bad, yeah

You sport an armband when you’re good and sad, yeah

La-la, la-la, revolution

La-la, la-la, revolution

I picked up a bad vibration

I don’t know why I’m feeling bad, yeah

I took off a bad vibration

Oliver North is running for Senate

Bomb the abortion clinic

Reagan’s defense is the deficit

The virus was invented

Black men can’t get acquitted

Of the crimes that we’ve committed

The future never happened

It never happened

La-la, la-la, revolution

La-la, la-la, revolution

La-la, la-la, revolution

I picked up a bad vibration

Your revolution is a silly idea, yeah

You tried to look like a punk rock girl

A whole lotta sneer, a little curl

But I don’t have time for your theatrics

Everybody knows that you’re a bad actress

We’ve been packaged for way too long, yeah

All the scum is rising

La-la, la-la, revolution

La-la, la-la, I picked up a bad vibration

La-la, la-la, revolution

La-la, la-la, I picked up a bad vibration
