When the fundamental things
It's a really good time for a protest song
it is breaking at the seams
And the people are uniting
and taking to the streets
To say they're bored of the greed,
And of a lie that is capitalism
We're gonna listen to the
She said a change is gonna come,
It's a really good time for a protest song
And revolution is a really big word
I've never even been to a protest before
I'm just jumping on the bandwagon
Hoping it will help me sell some albums
And I've got to sell albums

And if enough of us turn up

In fact, a feeling's mutual everywhere
Affecting the whole of civilisation

It's a really good time for a protest song
And revolution is a really big word
I've never even been to a protest before
I'm just jumping on the bandwagon
Hoping it'll help me sell some albums
cos that's the only thing
that would ever make me happy
It was written in me when I was a child
Money makes the world go round
to stop the world turning
And introduce a new way of thinking
We're people over profit,
Raise your hands and shake them at me
We could change the world tonight you
