Revival

(album: We Too Are One - 1989)

Well, I passed you by this morning
You were stumbling down the street
And by the look upon your face
I could tell you wasn't
Feeling too sweet
You dropped down to the bottom
That's what you
Gone and did
Living in a bad dream
Finally flipped your lid

Well, Superman, I've got
News for you
And every body else
That's listening too
There's a new way out
If yer ready to hear
We're gonna make it clear

What we need is revival!
Yeah!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!
Yeah!

Look at that girl
She's the saddest thing
You've ever seen
Washed up and faded
Like a dirty old pair of jeans
She's running 'round in circles
But she don't have a single friend
Looks like her own bitterness
Has twisted her 'til the end

Well – Mona Lisa look me in the eye
And tell me when
You're gonna get satisfied
I'm gonna spell it out
Right in front of you
This is what you have to do

Get ready for revival!
Revival!
Revival!
Yeah!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!

R.E.V.I.V.A.L.
It's gonna lift you
Right up
From your prison cell
Play it out loud
Like a ringing bell
You go
R.E.V.I.V.A.L.

Revival!
Revival!
Hey, Superman!
Revival!
Come on over here! Pick yourself up!
Revival!
Ha-ha! Yeah!
Revival!
You look so dirty, you look so mean!
Revival!
Ha, he's like James Brown!
Revival!
Revival!
That's the best thing you can do?
Revival!
That's the best thing you can do? Okay!
Revival!
Safe to say! Ha-ha!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!
Revival!
