A guy in my church in Mexico City has a band and they were rehearsing this song to play at a 30th wedding anniversary because the daughter wanted to sing it for her parents. The irony was that the parents and the entire party were key members of the leftist PRD Party here in Mexico. Cuautemoc Cardenas was there. Apparently, the girl and folks did not get the gist of the song…lost in the translation I suppose. But it reminded so much me of Obama and his hordes of child-followers chantings about “Revolution”, so….
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 you can count me out.
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Alright, alright
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 doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Alright, alright, al…
You say you’ll change the constitution
Well you know
We all want to 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 going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don’t you know know it’s gonna be alright
Alright, alright
