from decepticons to the aqua teen

By theBAC

when the revolution comes
we will have the world in our hands
when the revolution comes
we will stop to see what we are
when the revolution comes
we will have the politicians
and bureaucrats
on their knees
like ten cent whores
when the revolution comes
the sheep will be slaughtered
and the lambs will lose their heads
when the revolution comes
you will know all of your relatives names
and forget the names of game show contestants
when the revolution comes
money will be taboo
when the revolution comes
the quiet ones will speak their minds
when the revolution comes
the meek will rise
the strong will fall
when the revolution comes
you will survive on minimum wage
and not have to pay for health care
when the revolution comes
we will all be one race
when the revolution comes
class systems will be removed
hierarchies destroyed
when the revolution comes
pride will come from creation
dignity not gained from destruction
when the revolution comes
we will all be able to breathe
when the revolution comes
we will all control our destiny
when the revolution comes
i will be too old to fight alongside it

when the revolution comes

    to witness a horizon so far away , knowing you'll never reach it - but comforted in the fact that it's there .. this was cool , hope it's not a mirage --- funguy
