Revolution Song

[JUDITH]
I’m supposed to act the way they want me to act
But I don’t wanna act that way, so
Revolution in the institution

Won’t be told whose hand I can hold
Or which words I’m allowed to say, no!
Revolution in the institution

If I’m heading to the battle zone
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna go alone
Take a stand
Hold my hand

[DOROTHY]
Been this way since I was a girl
In a dress with a frilly bow

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

[DOROTHY]
"Play with Barbie," they yelled, "play with Barbie!"
But I wanted G.I. Joe

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

[RAT]
Learn to cook, learn to clean, learn to breed
Skills I do not necessarily need, no!

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

[SUSANNAH]
If I’m heading to the battle zone
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna go alone

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
See the crown
Take it down
Hey!

[KITTY]
I'm supposed to dress the way they want me to dress
But I got other dresses in mind, so

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

[KITTY]
Why do we have to fit into roles
That some man we don't know defined
No

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

[DOROTHY & YA-YA]
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Comes at a hefty, hefty price

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
And today, they'll all pay
Hey!
Hey!

(muttering, and) Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!

I’m supposed to act the way they want me to act
But I don’t wanna act that way, so
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

Won’t be told whose hand I can hold
Or which words I’m allowed to say, no!
Revolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution

If I’m heading to the battle zone
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna go alone
Take a stand
Hold my hand

Revolution in the institution
Evolution in the institution
Revolution in the institution
Evolution in the institution

[SUSANNAH]
S-T-O-P
You won't touch my family
H-A-T-E
Will not take my love from me

[SUSANNAH, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, DOROTHY, YA-YA]
S-T-O-P / Revolution in the institution
You won't touch my family / Evolution in the institution
H-A-T-E / Revolution in the institution
Whoa / Evolution in the institution

[DOROTHY, YA-YA, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, SUSANNAH]
Hate nation is coming down
It's coming down tonight
Hate nation is coming down
We’re putting up a fight

Soon it’ll be everything
That we been dreaming of
Hate nation will be erased
And be replaced with
Love

Love
Love

Revolution in the institution

Hey!
