Pete Townshend Won't Get Fooled Again Lyrics

We'll be 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 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 blamed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the last war

I raise 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, we don't get fooled again

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
Get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There's nothing in the street looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by the bye
The parting on the left is now parting on the right
And the beards have 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 don't wanna get fooled again, no, no

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
