Lyrics:
all the mamas say "hey hey hey"
all the daddies say "hi hi hi"
all the kiddies say "ho ho ho"
everybody say :
"hey hi ho let's have a revolution !"

chairman mao . . . where are you now ?
come on let's have a revolution !
ho chi minh . . . where have you been ?
come on let's have a revolution !
citizen smith . . . pass me that spliff,
( power to the people ! )
let's have a revolution !

darwin's typewriter was broke . . .
( it didn't have an R )
he came up with evolution !
henry ford never got bored . . .
( making all those cars )
now look at the pollution !
king knut got a wet boot . . .
( standing on a beach )
let's have a revolution !

tony blair phucked-up everywhere . . .
( come on there's only one solution )
string him up in parliament square !
come on let's have a revolution !
take all his friends . . .
and drown 'em in the thames !
come on let's have a revolution !

bush and blair . . . sitting in a tree,
( k-i-s-s-i-n-g )
planning world domination over tea,
getting us hooked on m.s.g.
i'm getting to the point . . .
but let me finish off this joint !
( what was i saying ? )
let's have a revolution !

spanish guitar, ibanez electric guitar, epiphone bass, midi drums, mandolin.

... (background vocals third verse) says this is the worst
song she's ever heard in her life.

Children have no taste at all.

Brilliant CJ. Kick out the Jams, like.

Hurrah! &mdash 02/24/05 - 03:07:56 AM
Yeah ... I agree, high time we kicked out our crap
prime minister!

They should use this song at the Labour Party
conferences - spare us the sight of John Prescott
bopping away to 'Things Can Only Get Better'...

Great stuff! Love it.

tooting army ! &mdash 02/24/05 - 04:14:19 AM
thanks dl . . .
this is the quickest song i've ever done . . . i think ?
recorded the music in the morning, wrote the words in the evening,
got in touch with mando' to ask him about doing a mandolin solo . . .
he'd done it by the next day ! ( and i think it's that which makes the song )
mixed it in and posted it . . . one and a half days i think ?

nice one

power to the porridge !

I had a blast. Fumbling attempt at tasteful jazz for kscaito on Japan one day;
trying for punk mando for country john in Wales the next. Good God. Nice
here, in't it ?

If anything I reckon you should turn up your guitar a notch, CJ. (Too much
mando). As I said when I first heard it, it's a beautiful song and a beautiful
sentiment.

If anything can get rid of Blair, this song can!

(Oh crap. Looks like we got him for five more years then. Things can only
get...)

A new song so soon. The mandolin is a very nice touch.

Well done, Country John, Mandolinquent.

Ah, ah , ah &mdash 02/24/05 - 10:50:24 AM
You are now on the CIA list of subversive terrorist
organizations! Check your mail carefully so you don't get
any of that anthrax which lo and behold was produced by
the US Gov. Some of us Yanks have finally figured out that
our first and second revolutions didn't work. The second
was late 60's early 70's. Same power structure we kicked
out has moved right back in stronger than ever. No secret
why Bush and Blair were so tight.

Can you imagine if the "r" was missing? &mdash 02/25/05 - 07:54:03 AM
Surprise.............were gonna have this revolution and were
gonna like it!!!!! Good job with the beginning and the
break off. I was pleasantly surprised. Everything is
great~~~~!!! I do really enjoy the mandolin solo. I am still
trying to figure out what all the fascination with the
mandolin is about lately.

Good Lyrics. They were easy to understand, and all the
parts fit nicely, so good Mix.. Thanks for sharing.

nice one . . .

chee s iaa . . .

ability to adapt to changing fo ces we expe ienced !

the mandolin phenomenon is due to a new kid on the block . . .
. . . billy shaw aka mandolinquent ! . . he's the man ! . .

Hey hi ho! &mdash 02/25/05 - 08:28:29 AM
Your best track yet, Country John? I think so! Great
lyrics and a fabby tune. And major kudos to Mando
for his excellent contribution. You have got to try to
get this released as a single! It could become the
anthem for this year's election. Sorted, like a bowl of
glowing Ready Brek on a chilly February day!
…actually my wife made lovely porridge this morning
but the idea's there.

Hey hi ho! &mdash 02/25/05 - 01:06:35 PM
nice one ian . . .
i agree . . . i think it's my best effort too ! . . . : )
. . . helped immeasurably by billy's mandolin playing !
i think i'm going to teach myself a lesson here . . .
. . . i'm going to not get too attatched to my songs
and stop altering sounds and mixes for months on end ! . .

well . . . i'm going to try anyway . . .

WOWZERS! &mdash 08/26/05 - 05:24:20 AM
The sound is so innocent yet the words are cocky as well as
clever enough to actually work here. The structure is rather
clear with enough levity to let it slide a bit here and there
without disrupting the flow of the music.

I REALLY LIKE THIS!
