Fingers are pointed at you
So many traitors pursued
Loyal Patriots falsely accused
Tribunals arrest and prosecute
Guillotines in the square
Gathering crowd begins to cheer
Mob scene! Storming Tuileries
For the King! No eulogies!
Revolution's in the air!
Revolution's everywhere!
Stoking panic, fright and fear
Revolution. It's here!
A Reign of Terror decree
Target Robespierre's enemies
Public execution killing spree
Massacres are the commune's remedy!
Guillotines in the square
Antoinette's Diamond Necklace Affair
Mob scene! Burning Tuileries
For the Queen! No eulogies!
Revolution's in the air!
Revolution's everywhere!
Stoking panic, fright and fear
Revolution. It's here!
Nobility flee
When Louis 16
Is tried and guillotined
Republic proclaimed
With Liberty aims
Equality, Fraternity
Guillotines in the square
Gathering crowd begins to cheer
Mob scene! Storming Tuileries
For the King! No eulogies!
Revolution's in the air!
Revolution's everywhere!
Stoking panic, fright and fear
Revolution. It's here!
