Lyrics

One Man Revolution

[Verse 1]

On the streets of New York

The cabs don't stop

On the street where I live

They called the cops

Found a noose in my garage

Now how 'bout that

So tonight I'm in the bushes

With a baseball bat

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

The time is nigh, the day is dark

There's only one solution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

[Verse 2]

On the streets of Havana

I got hugged and kissed

At the Playboy Mansion

I wasn't on the list

On the streets of Cape Town

Shit's ready to blow

I don't know how to get there

But I'm ready to go

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

The time is nigh, the day is dark

There's only one solution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

[Verse 3]

Sacrifice and neon lights

Slaveships don't wait

Love many, trust few

And don't be late

In my nightmares

The streets are aflame

And in my dreams

It's much the same

And on the streets of L.A

They know my name

And if you've come this far mister

Maybe we're one and the same

[Chorus]

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution

The time is nigh, the day is dark

There's only one solution

I'm a one man, I'm a one man

I'm a one man revolution
