There′ll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and the 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 change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I′ll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
The world looks just the same
And history ain′t changed
′Cause the banners, they 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 change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I′ll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no
I move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I′ll get on my knees and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie
There'll be fighting in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced by alibis
The party on the left is now a party on the right
And the bills are all grown longer overnight
I′ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Yeah, don′t get fooled again
No, no, no
Come on, don′t get fooled
Don't get fooled again
Come on, don′t get fooled
Don't get fooled again
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
Get on my knees and pray
Don′t get fooled again
Hey
Come on, don't get fooled
Don′t get fooled again
Hey
