[Verse 1]
You say you want a revolution, well, you know
We all wanna change the world
You tell me that it's evolution, well, you know
We all wanna change the world
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out?
[Chorus]
Don't you know it's gonna be
Alright?
You know it's gonna be
Alright
You know it's gonna be
Alright
[Verse 2]
You say you got a real solution, well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution, well, you know
We're all doing what we can
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is, brother, you have to wait
[Chorus]
Don't you know it's gonna be
Alright?
You know it's gonna be
Alright
You know it's gonna be
Alright
[Verse 3]
You say you'll change the constitution, well, you know
We all wanna change your head
You tell me it's the institution, well, you know
You better free your mind instead
[Pre-Chorus 3]
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
[Chorus]
Don't you know it's gonna be
Alright?
You know it's gonna be
Alright
You know it's gonna be
Alright
[Outro]
You know it's gonna be (Alright)
Alright
You know it's gonna be (Alright)
Alright
You know it's gonna be (Alright)
Alright
