Won't Get Fooled Again

Then I'll get on my knees and pray
Smile and grin at the change all around

I'll move myself and my family aside
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
They decide and then the shotgun sings the song
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war
We don't get fooled again, no no
And the men who spurred us on sit in judgment of all wrong
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
Take a bow for the new revolution

The change, it had to come, we knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same and history ain't changed

We don't get fooled again
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Take a bow for the new revolution
Meet the new boss
Do ya?
We don't get fooled again

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Yeah

Don't get fooled again, no no
Pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday
There's nothing in the streets, looks any different to me
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
If we happen to be left half alive
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left is now parting on the right
