Hiding in the desert between the sand dunes | |
Havent slept in three moons | |
I'm running off fumes | |
Plus, I'm feeling sick with my pursuer's revenge | |
But I know I can't quit until the madness ends | |
We gotta keep moving. We're too close | |
And the enemy's scared man we got 'em on the ropes | |
So, hold your pistol on the low, and your head high | |
Look 'em dead in the eye and shout the war-cry | |
People stand up! Let's start a revolution | |
I'm fed up with being pushed around | |
We gotta fight back! And start a revolution | |
It's about time that we stood our ground | |
You see, it was ten or so years ago | |
When they rolled up in the town and stole the show | |
They used sex, intimidation and violence to plunder | |
And take the people under like pirates | |
They started spreading their seeds about | |
And we tried to resist but they squeezed us out | |
So we went underground, off the map | |
Now were on our way back, | |
Now were on our way back! | |

[This is it ] | |
[You know when they move | |
They steal and erupt] | |
[This is the moment] | |
[Better step back] | |
[Okay mister no more nice guys] | |
Now, I had a strategy, take 'em out rapidly | |
Break into their stronghold and blow a battery | |
I called a meeting and I drew up the plans | |
Volunteers? Fifty men then threw up their hands | |
I need one group on the boulevard | |
When you signal just shoot with no regard | |
It's only a distraction (what?) so no killing | |
As you make noise we'll break in the main building | |
And head for the stash spots, with the cash pots | |
We'll take it all and bleed 'em til the last drops | |
Then we'll need to tie up the guards | |
Cut the phone lines and set the charge | |
We'll make our escape then listen as the guns blow | |
Turn around and watch the walls crumble | |
Finally we get what's rightfully ours | |
And put those who held us back behind bars | |
So. Hit the sack at the crack of dawn | |
Its time to rise up the attack is on | |
The next morning we gathered on a prairie | |
Looking down on the town from a cemetery | |

[Best move you can make is a move to Sa Vena] | |
[This is the moment.] | |
[Better step back] | |
[We have to fight!] | |
I told the boys tighten up your boots | |
Put on your sombrero | |
Today we go in to overthrow the pharaoh | |
We rode town but everything was vacant | |
Except for one vagrant asleep on the pavement | |
We were puzzled. Then the church bell rung | |
And someone shouted "Stop the Rebellion!" | |
We all ducked and ran for protection | |
Gunshots struck from every direction | |
Man when it happened we must'a been spied out | |
Later I heard we had a traitor in our hideout | |
We were in trouble, this could be our last stand | |
Then I saw a masked man jump out of a trash can | |
He took aim and caught my arm | |
A half a foot to the left I'd have bought the farm | |
I was alive but I couldn't stay vertical | |
Fall into the dirt below like I had vertigo | |
I crawled out of the street into a pool hall | |
Out of bullets so I threw a cue ball | |
Now I'm surrounded it's looking grim | |
They yell "Come out or were coming in" | |
I said boys can you say it again | |
Reloading my weapon and I started to grin | |
The odds are long and I might not live | |
But I'm coming out shootin' like the Sundance Kid | |
"Alright. We've got you surrounded, now come out with your hands up or it's gonna get ugly. And I mean ugly." | |
"You'll never take me alive" | |
"Gentlemen, lets proceed." | |
Hiding in the desert between the sand dunes | |
Havent slept in three moons | |
I'm running off fumes | |
Plus, I'm feeling sick with my pursuer's revenge | |
But I know I can't quit until the madness ends | |
Start a revolution | |
Start the revolution | |
"Towns people say they will never forget the scene" | |
"I just did what I had to do" |
