- Johnny Clegg the revolution will eat ITS children (anthem for uncle Bob) 歌詞
- Johnny Clegg
- He's a leader, talks of freedom
He knows the power of the Big Idea
He's a dealer, he's a seeker
Of the power that comes from fear
He gave his life to the party machine
Holding on to a secret dream
He knows better than anyone
Power comes from the barrel of a gun
And he's rising up against them now
And he's rising up in country and town
Rising up against them now, rising up
The revolution will eat its children
I see the river of dreams run dry
I'm so thankful I got to love you
You are the reason I survive
The promise of a better life for all
The promise of freedom from hunger and war
So many rose up to answer the call
And so many are no longer here at all
The hopes of yesterday drowning in shifting sands
'cause something strange is going on across the land
Preaching water but drinking wine
Power gets us every time
The more things change
The more they stay the same
And they're rising up against him now
And they're rising up in country and town
And they're rising up, rising up
The revolution will eat its children
I see the river of dreams run dry
I'm so thankful I got to love you
You are the reason I survive
Free them from this hunger,
Free!
