Letra

You will not be able to stay home, brother
You will not be able to tune in, turn off and cop out
You will not be able to lose yourself on crack and slip out for beer during commercials, because...
The revolution will not be televised

The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be brought to you by Exxon in four parts without commercial interruptions
The revolution will not show you pictures of Bush blowing a bugle
And leading a charge by d**k Cheney, General Schwarzkopf, and Dan Quayle
To eat (Debts?) confiscated from the Freedom National Bank
The revolution... will not be televised

The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be brought to you by Masterpiece Theatre
And will not star Marla Maples as Tom Cruise or Oprah as Miss Piggie
The revolution will not say Alka Seltzer to the rescue
The revolution will not Just Do It
The revolution will not make you Slim Fast, because
The revolution will not be televised, brother

There will be no pictures of you and Shaquan
Pushing that shopping cart down the block on a dead run
Or trying to slide that color TV into a stolen ambulance
CNN will not be able predict the winner at 8:32 pm on report from 29 districts
The revolution will not be televised

There will be no pictures of L.A. pigs (Highballing hands)? on the instant replay
There will be no pictures of L.A. pigs (Highballing hands)? on the instant replay
There will be no pictures of Al Sharpton being run out of (London)?
On a rail with a brand new process
There will be no slow motions or still lives of Jesse Jackson
Strolling through the streets of Washington DC
In a red, black, and green liberation jumpsuit
That he has been saving for just the proper occasion

LA Law, Designing Women and ThirtySomething
Will no longer be so damn relevant
And women will not care if d**k finally
Got down with Jane on Twin Peaks
Because we the people will be on the streets looking for a brighter day
The revolution will not be televised

There will be no highlights on the Live at Five
No pictures of Amy Fisher weeping
No closeups of Ivana Trump blowing her nose
The theme song will not be written by Andrew Lloyd Webber or Francis Scott Key
Nor sung by Billy Joel, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, The New Kids On The Block
The revolution will not be televised

The revolution will not be televised
The revolution will not be right back after nation identification
Or a word from our sponsors
You will not have to worry about (Beating a Bud)
(Dropping in vanish drop-ins)?
(Or popping up and airing out)?
The revolution will not be Just For The Taste Of It
The revolution will not Wash And Go
The revolution will no Sell Itself

The revolution will not be televised
Will not be televised
Will not be televised
Will not be televised
The revolution will be LIVE…

Don’t leave home without it
