lyrics
Don’t you know talking about a revolution sounds like a whisper Don’t you know talking about a revolution sounds like a whisper While they’re standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don’t you know talking about a revolution sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up and take what’s theirs
Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
You know you better run run run run run run run run run run run run
I said you better run run run run run run run run run run run run
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking bout a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking bout a revolution oh
While they’re standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don’t you know talking bout a revolution sounds like a whisper
Don’t you know talking bout a revolution sounds like a whisper
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution, oh
Talkin bout a revolution
Talkin bout a revolution, oh
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don’t you know talking about a revolution sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up and take what’s theirs
Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
You know you better run run run run run run run run run run run run
I said you better run run run run run run run run run run run run
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking bout a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking bout a revolution oh
While they’re standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don’t you know talking bout a revolution sounds like a whisper
Don’t you know talking bout a revolution sounds like a whisper
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution, oh
Talkin bout a revolution
Talkin bout a revolution, oh

The instrumentation and songwriting in this album is really top-tier. Aofie is one of my favorite folk/alt-country artists and she performs wonderfully, bringing her unique tone of voice to this project. This album was my first step into Aofie's artistry, and is firmly one of my favorite albums.
