Won't Get Fooled Again

(album: Moon Shadow - 1972)

They're cutting and fighting and kiling
They're cutting and fighting and kiling

We're fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
The men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decided and a shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the changes all around
Pick up myself and say
Oh, it's just like yesterday
Oh, I'll get on my knees and pray
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again

I'll move
I'm gonna move
I'll move
I'll move
I'll move myself and my family aside
Even if we're left half alive
I'll get all my papers, smile at the sky
Even though hypnotized never lie
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no no
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no no

They're cutting and fighting and kiling
They're cutting and fighting and kiling

The change we knew would come (We knew it)
We knew it all along (We knew it)
We were liberated, oh, from the fold (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't to blame
Banners were all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the changes all around
Pick up myself and say
Oh Lord, it's just like yesterday
And I get on my knees and pray, pray, pray
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again, no no
We won't get fooled again

I'm gonna move on
Said I'm gonna move on
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move myself and my family aside
Even if we're left half alive
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move, move, move, move
I'm gonna move, move, move
I move
Move on
Move on
Move on
Move on...
