"Won’t Get Fooled Again" by The Who

 



We'll be fighting in the streetsWith our children at our feetAnd the morals that they worship will be goneAnd the men who spurred us onSit in judgement of all wrongThey decide and the shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new ConstitutionTake a bow for the new revolutionSmile and grin at the change all aroundPick up my guitar and playJust like yesterdayThen I'll get on my knees and prayWe don't get fooled again
A change, it had to comeWe knew it all alongWe were liberated from the fold, that's allAnd the world looks just the sameAnd history ain't changed'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war
I'll tip my hat to the new ConstitutionTake a bow for the new revolutionSmile and grin at the change all aroundPick up my guitar and playJust like yesterdayThen I'll get on my knees and prayWe don't get fooled again, no, no
I'll move myself and my family asideIf we happen to be left half-aliveI'll get all my papers and smile at the skyFor I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do you?
Yeah
There's nothing in the streetLooks any different to meAnd the slogans are effaced, by-the-byeAnd the parting on the leftIs now parting on the rightAnd the beards have all grown longer overnight
I'll tip my hat to the new ConstitutionTake a bow for the new revolutionSmile and grin at the change all aroundPick up my guitar and playJust like yesterdayThen I'll get on my knees and prayWe don't get fooled againDon't get fooled again, no, no
YeahMeet the new bossSame as the old boss
