Today's Beatles song of the day: "Revolution"
You say you want a revolution
Well you know
We all wanna change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well you know
We all wanna 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
You say you got a real solution
Well you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know
We're all doing what we can
But if you want money from people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
All right
All right
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...
You say you'll change the constitution
Well you know
We all wanna change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be
all right
all right
all right
all right
all right
all right
all right
all right
all right
This track was released as the B-side to "Hey Jude" on August 26, 1968. Written by John Lennon, the lyrics were him finally being able to express a political viewpoint after not being able to do so for many years.
