Smile in the face of your enemies They can’t kill your dreams New faces are welcome down at the meeting place With the gold of the future brightly gleams
Down the street you hear the sound of confusion Echoing like a million voices On the wave of a wind you may ride But only if you’re not scared to fall
I think this change is here to stay, don’t you know? Revolution come, revolution go
New master riding in on a white horse All the new kings with their feet of clay Lying to the people about some new deal Chump change happens every day
People in the streets raising their voices high Trying to be heard over the thunder World is rumbling and trembling Is it some kind of spell that we’re under?
I think this change is here to stay, don’t you know? Revolution come, revolution go
Sun is rising on a sinking town Don’t let us die before the sun goes down Bells ringing in the hope of a brand new day
We come flying on the wings of a song Singing the message of right and wrong Keep on ringing them bells for the brand new day
For the brand new day Keep on ringing them bells For the brand new day
Smile in the face of your enemies They can’t kill your dreams I think this change is here to stay, don’t you know? Revolution come, revolution go
