[Verse 1]
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know

[Chorus]
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be alright

[Bridge]
Alright
Alright

[Verse 2]
You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know

[Chorus]
You know we're doing what we can
But when you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is, brother, you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
[Bridge]
Alright
Alright

[Verse 3]
You say you'll change the Constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know

[Chorus]
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be alright

[Bridge]
Alright
Alright

[Outro]
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
