Jordan “Rat Boy” Cardy told NME, “’Revolution’ is about life as a young person growing up in a post-Brexit Essex. It’s about feeling trapped.”
The song was released as an advance single, four months prior its associated album Scum. It was written by Cardy, Richard Archer (frontman of Hard Fi), and...
Revolution Lyrics
[Chorus]
I was alright
Till they took me off my medication
Started slagging off my generation
And I don't know why
[Verse 1]
Well, this is a story not long ago
When the world got divided by what we vote
We're not so far from World War 3
I think most the people here might be crazy
So fresh, the Prince of Polluted Air
Do you ever feel like your life just isn't fair?
Well, I'm so poor, I can't even pay attention
From the bottom of my heart, can't get no redemption
[Chorus]
I was alright
Till they took me off my medication
Started slagging off my generation
And I don't know why
And now all night
Sitting talking 'bout a revolution
C-c-coughing up the p-pollution
And I can't breathe right
[Verse 2]
Everyday, standing in the rain with a blank expression
I guess this is a lesson in lessons, I shoulda payed attention
Sixteen and you don't know what to be
Spend nights out on the street with friends and just get beat
Well, I guess the rest will be history
Old folks' votes don't cater for you and me
A friend in need is a friend indeed
But a friend selling Zs ain't clever
[Chorus]
I was alright
Till they took me off my medication
Started slagging off my generation
And I don't know why
And now all night
Sitting talking 'bout a revolution
C-c-coughing up the p-pollution
And I can't breathe right
[Bridge]
Mind is spinning
My mind is spinning
Mind is spinning
M-m-my mind is spinning
[Chorus x2]
I was alright
Till they took me off my medication
Started slagging off my generation
And I don't know why
And now all night
Sitting talking 'bout a revolution
C-c-coughing up the p-pollution
And I can't breathe right
[Outro]
And I can't breathe right
I can't breathe right
And I can't breathe right
I can't breathe right
And I don't know why
