Lyrics

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know that you can count me out
Don’t you know it’s gonna be
All right, all right, all right

Note

According to Tony Lash, the Revolution cover came about when “Nike had a bunch of Portland bands do versions of Revolution for an ad campaign that never happened. They didn’t like ours because it sounded too much like the original.”
