Thea Gilmore - The Revisionist lyrics
Your rating:
Brother, brother, let me tell you what I learned 'Cause the fools are on the march, there are bridges getting burned Boy, you better pray that you don't show up on that list 'Cause this is the time of the revisionist There was a time, it doesn't seem that long You could still hear history whispering, but it cut a lonely song Now all those motherfuckers wave their flags out in the street Throwing hatred like confetti, drinking populism neat Listen listen can you hear the rising tide Raise the anchor, Noah, yeah we're in for a rough ride The past will be rewritten and the future's in the twist 'Cause this is the time of the revisionist Brother, brother, have you got what it takes Before the kingdom crumbles and the soldiers storm the gates I'd love to trust your motives but I haven't got the faith 'Cause you do a great impression of a really bad mistake If you've got a six-point on your coat or a rainbow sign A star and a crescent, a double-X line The wrong end of the colour chart, the wrong side of the tracks The revisionists are coming and they're not holding back Soldier, soldier, come on give me your hand We can build a better future, we can make a bigger stand Bring all the friends of reason that you can enlist We'll face down the time of the revisionist We'll face down the time of the revisionist Yeah, we'll face down the time, 'cause this is the time We'll face down the time of the revisionist
