won't get fooled again

we'll be fighting in the streets

with our children at our feet

and the morals that they worshiped will be gone

and the men who spurred us on

sit in judgement of all wrong

he decides and the shotgun sings the song

i'll tip my hat to the new constitution

take a vow for the new revolution

smile and grin at the change all around

pick up my guitar and play

just like yesterday

then i'll get on my knees and pray

we don't get fooled again

fooled again

yeah

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

'cause the banners

they were flown in the last war

i'll tip my hat to the new constitution

take a vow for the new revolution

smile and grin at the change all around

pick up my guitar and play

just like yesterday

then i'll get on my knees and pray

yeah

we don't get fooled again

don't

don't get fooled again

i'll move myself and my family aside

if we happen to be left half alive

i'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

though i know that the hypnotized never lie

do ya

yeah

meet the new boss

same as the old boss

i'll tip to the new revolution

we don't get fooled again

don't get fooled again
