When you wake up in the morning
Daddy will be there
No longer can you speak highly of yourself
He'll make you cut your hair
And soon you'll stand on mountains
Of strung and slaughtered trees
In a building made of trust funds
And a radiator breeze
With spiders crawling up your back
And oils filling every crack
And people who see life through a gray lens
And fascists who wouldn't stand
Anyone lending a helping hand
And children who mistake their lives for screen
Don't give up the world to anybody
Or any company
Find freedom in each other link your hands spread generosity
Tear down walls of hate and save your peers from their own confusion
Be sure the revolution is televised
And while a dodger stands on pulpits
And reclaims Germany
Worms begin to crawl through
Your friends and enemies
And the seven headed dragon
Rises from the sea
All because the children
Have no more sympathy
And the rail splitter cries in shame
At what all his green hills became
All because we couldn't dare to be kind
And Satan dances in his grave
Overjoyed by this sad phase
He was waiting for this moment to come
Don't give up the world to anybody
Or any company
Find freedom in each other link your hands spread generosity
Tear down walls of hate and save your peers from their own confusion
Be sure the revolution is televised
Make the roses grow again
Make the roses grow again
Make the roses grow again
Make the roses grow again
Plant the seeds
Plant the seeds
Don't give up the world to anybody
Or any company
Find freedom in each other link your hands spread generosity
Tear down walls of hate and save your peers from their own confusion
Be sure the revolution is televised
