'You'll Never Be The First, You'll Never Be The Last'


I thought I might explain the name of our blog, for those who don't understand.

There's a band, called The Red Paintings. They're Genius. Lead Singer, and general main guy, Mr Trash McSweeny, is a sexy Australian artist/musician. They're classed as an 'Art Rock' band or something like that, and they encorporate paintings, and actual art into their very arty live shows in which they usually dress up and jump around alot :) (Wiki them to get the whole lot about them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Red_Paintings )

Your intrigued already I know.

Well anyway, they have this song, called The Revolution's Never Coming. It's on one of their EP's atm I think, but It's soon gonna be the lead track of their new debut album (Also called The Revolution's Never Coming, See the link we made!) Well we fell in love with this song really, not only is it just a good song to listen to, it's also kinda funny, with an actual meaning behind it. Oh... and it also goes 'choo choo' in the middle. and It says 'But The Scientists Will Never Kill Me!' Which my Science teacher wasn't too pleased with, when I wrote in in crayon on the front of my book...

The Revolution's Never Coming Lyricss

You want it,
You need it bad,
There's nothing better than this.

And I don't care if your looking at me,
And thinking I'm wasting my dreams.

Look at us now, we're all gone down,
My Father turns and the Priest holds nothing.

The covet on the wall,
The words of war,
Revolution's never coming!

And I wish you'd been stuck with blindness,
Before your eyes saw what they're about to see...
Please...

To an unknown destination dear Future,
But the Scientists will never kill me!

Look the good soldiers,
They simply follow orders,
The screams die down,
And the sea steals their promise.

The covet on the wall,
The words of war,
Revolution's Never Coming!

Shh, don't tell anyone.
The Catholics,
They think the protestants know,
Could be the Christians,
Who missed the train *Choo Choo*
But are you Kurt Cobain,
Caught in a trail of Death,
Let's go to Mars,
And start it all again!

All good things must come to an end,
I tell myself, carfully picking up a crumb of bread,
With reaking soil,
Concentration camps
Sold my face, stand for Japan,
Do all bad things,
Come to an end?
Just aswell, God must've heard my prayer,
The very next day,
A new guy smiled,
A new woman shook,
and the night retired,
and the night retired...

Hey, here's the last story,
tell it to your kids,
live without fear,
to say The Government's Boring!
You'll never be the first,
You'll never be the last!
Learn to *???*
Kill the coward who tells his stories.
Don't be mislead,
It's not a Revolution!
Not here to save your souls,
See you printing a solution,
It's all about Power,
Power over Money,
Products for the people making money in our country!

The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!

My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
My Soul Dear Me,
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's never coming!
The Revolution's came and gone...




Some of these may be slightly off, cause he does sing some bits so they're hard to make out. But this is pretty much the lyrics.

Maybe now you understand. It's just another part of our obsessive personalities. LOL
