Pulp - The Day After The Revolution Lyrics
The dust has settled,Replaces the bulbs in all the lights.I guess Ill get no sleep tonight.A revolution happened.Oh, sorry, you havent heard?We are the children of the new world.If youre quiet you can watch if you like.They say the futures beginning tonight.Whole empires will crumble.Civilisations will fall.Lie on the bed, hear the sound of it all.No anger, no guilt and no sorrow;It sounds unlikely, I know, but tomorrowYou will wake up to find that your whole life has changed.Although nothing looks differentA revolution took place.I love the way you do it.I love the way you put them on.You know the answers but you get it wrong.(just to confuse things).Why did it seem so difficult to realise a simple truth?The revolution begins and ends with you.Now all the breakdowns and nightmares look small.Now we decided not to die after all.Because the meek shall inherit absolutely nothing at all.If you stopped being so feeble you could have so much more.The answer was here all the time, you see.Just how I missed it is a mystery to me.I have waited and waited for this day to arrive.The revolution was televised.Now its over, bye bye.Its over, bye bye.Yeah, we made it.Just by the skin of our teeth.Perfection is over(the rave is over)Sheffield is over.The fear is over.Guilt is over(please leave the building quietly)Bergerac is over.The hangover is overMen are overWomen are over.Cholesterol is over.Tapers are over.Irony is over.Bye bye.Bye bye.
