Revolution - Live in Chicago / 1995 R.E.M.

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Your revolution is a silly idea, yeah
All your friends are feeling sad
It's like you need a reason to be feeling bad, yeah
You sport an armband when you're good and mad, yeah

[Chorus]
La-la, la-la, revolution
(The future never happened)
La-la, la-la, revolution

[Verse 2]
I don't know why I'm feeling bad, yeah
I picked up a bad vibration
Oliver North is runnin' for Senate
Bomb the abortion clinic
Reagan's defense is the deficit
The virus was invented
Black men can't get acquitted
Of the crimes that we've committed
The future never happened
It never happened
