WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN
Original Artist - THE WHO
(Townshend)

Verse 1
we'll be fighting in the streets
with our children at our feet
and the morals that they worship will be gone
and the men who spurred us on
sit in judgment of our wrong
they decide and the shotgun sings the song

Chorus 1
i'll tip my hat to the new constitution
take a bow for the new revolution
smile and grin at the change all around
pick up my guitar and play
just like yesterday
then i'll get on my knees and pray
we WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN

Verse 2
the change it had to come
we knew it all along
we were liberated from the fold that's all
the world looks just the same
and history ain't blamed
cause the banners, they are flown in the last war

Chorus 2
i'll tip my hat to the new constitution
take a bow for the new revolution
smile and grin at the change all around
pick up my guitar and play
just like yesterday
then i'll get on my knees and pray
we WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN
no, no
we WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN

Middle 8
i'll move myself and my family aside
if we happen to be left half alive
i'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
though i know that the hypnotized never lie
do ya?

Verse 3
there's nothing in the street
looks any different to me
and the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
and the parting on the left
is now parting on the right
and the beards of thought grow longer overnight

Chorus 3
i'll tip my hat to the new constitution
take a bow for the new revolution
smile and grin at the change all around
pick up my guitar and play
just like yesterday
then i'll get on my knees and pray
we WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN
won't get fooled again
no, no

Outro
meet the new boss
same as the old boss
