Can't you see by the look in our eyes
That the rock revolution won't be televised
Can't you see by the look in our eyes
That the rock revolution won't be televised
When she reached maturity
According to her father
She was given
His old acoustic guitarShe taught herself a bunch of chords
And wrote songs about the oppression of the working class
And sang them in the park
She sang
I will come clean
'cause the cleaner i get is the messiest yet
I will come clean
'cause the cleaner i get is the messiest yet
Her and her music were becoming known
Across the continental united states
For her message and activism
The f.b.i. even had a file
With her name on it for disturbing the peace
And the security of the nation
Can't you see by the look in our eyes
That the rock revolution won't be televised
Can't you see by the look in our eyes
That the rock revolution won't be televised
And it's truth, so it comes as no surprise
That the rock revolution won't be televised
