Written by Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb and Maurice Gibb

From the album "Bunbury Tails"
|
|
I tell you the truth can be painful
|
And the mainstream of life can be cruel
|
If you believe in your chances today
|
you could be a fool, don't you be a fool, oh no
|
|
Revenge is mine, oh no
|
A case of do or die
|
Gather round if you want to be free
|
Sing the words to this song
|
|
We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me
|
When achieving the impossible is a possibility
|
It's a time for any loser to win, it's how you play the game
|
Don't you start the revolution without me in another name
|
|
Stand by your bunbury notions
|
That is how you get to be strong
|
Now you come here from over the sea
|
Where you don't belong, no you don't belong, oh no
|
|
Friend of mine, oh no
|
A case of do or die
|
Gather round if you want to be free
|
Sing the words to this song
|
|
We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me
|
When achieving the impossible is a possibility
|
It's a time for any loser to win, and you can overthrow
|
We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow
|
|
Oh no, revenge is mine, oh no
|
A case of do or die
|
Gather round if you want to be free
|
Sing the words to this song
|
|
We go up the revolution, go down to find a brighter day
|
If you dream the unapproachable dream, you find a better way
|
If it's just another corner you're in, then you can overthrow
|
We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow
|
