Lyrics to Rock 'N' Roll Proletariat



Are you ready for a revolution

Time to raise the stakes

Everybody wants it so easy

Too many people (on that worn out grate[?])



There's a fucked up shake down

It happens every night

But tonight it's gonna change forever

When the top brass tastes a bit of this medicine



You waited long, but it happens fast

'Cause everyone's gonna get backstage pass



I pledge allegiance

To the Rock'n'Roll proletariat

Get up, get even

Show those motherfuckers that you mean it



One in a million, a million strong

Do what it takes, take what you want

There's enough, enough for all

Rise above, standing tall



The time has come to take back what they took

Go get your piece of the pie

I ain't in to just fuckin' around

Roll up your sleeves and jump in the fire



I'm sick and tired of running round and round

Don't you feel the same?

They turn a blind eye and a deaf ear

Backed up in a corner, living in a cage



Get back in line, and pump up your fist

'Cause everybody here's getting on the guest list



I pledge allegiance

To the Rock'n'Roll proletariat

Get up, get even

Show those motherfuckers that you mean it



One in a million, a million strong

Do what it takes, take what you want

There's enough, enough for all

Rise above, standing tall



The time has come, this is it

Are you ready? 'Cos I'm ready

Let's roll, let's get it up

'Cos this thing's on the move whether we like it or not



This rock is rolling, this rock is strong

Let's make it hotter before it's gone

We've been pushed for long enough

It's time to push back, it's gonna get rough



You better believe it



I pledge allegiance

To the Rock'n'Roll proletariat

Get up, get even

Show those motherfuckers that you mean it



I pledge allegiance

To the Rock'n'Roll proletariat

Get up, get even

Show those motherfuckers that you mean it



This rock is rolling, this rock is strong

Let's make it hotter before it's gone

We've been pushed for long enough

It's time to push back, it's gonna get rough



Are you ready? Hehehehehe
