The Ranks of the Masses Rising
Times up! You’re outta luck and your back’s
Up against the wall
From Tunisia to Washington the
People are calling: "No!"
Your gas n guns, your clubs n thugs
Your lies on the TV
None of that can save you now
As your reign is swept away
Get up! Get up! Your voices are needed
Become, become the pulse of the revolution
In the ranks of the masses risin’
Another shakedown and a slap in the face
And he know he’d had had enough
He doused himself in gasoline, took a breath
And lit a match
She said: "I will go down to Tehrir
Square and I will stand alone
And if you have any dignity
I won’t be on my own"
Get up! Get up! Your voices are needed
Become, become the pulse of the revolution
In the ranks of the masses risin’
