We have all heard the stories
We've alle been told the tales
All the songs of pride and glory
Of how virtue will prevail
But there will be no revolution
There will be no revolution
And we've marveled at the heroes
We've fallen for the rebel
For those who dared oppose
The unrighteous and the evil
But there will be no revolution
No there will be no revolution
So this is mother's milk
This is catholic guilt
This is culture, this is code
This is a perfect fit
But for the crazy cats on Youtube
For the prayers and the porn
For the opulence, the excess
For the endless open doors
For the opium, the soma
For the cookies and the cream
For the Netflix and the iPhone
For the lulling of the stream
For the battle for attention
For the interns on the news
For the petty politicians
For the democratic snooze
For the instant gratification
For the constant procrastination
For you
There will be no revolution
