The Butchies
"To Be Broadcast Live"


I'm looking out there at a world
standing while it's asleep
it'll make you wish you hadn't tried
to be “so fucking great”
now you're the one
it wants to think I trusted you
things will never be the same
what's the R-E-V without someone who knows
what's the R-E-V if you don't already know
walk around downtown
it's gorgeous here like where I came from
I thought we had a moment
I thought we had something
but where are you now
what's the R-E-V without someone who knows
what it's like to cross over and go live
it's already started
to be broadcast
we've made the front page ladies
who's talking about us now
I heard the TIMES would like an interview
if you had to choose a leader who would it be
and what would they do
there are enough of us now
do you care about us at all
what's the R-E-V without conviction
did you think we needed your permission
what's the R-E-V stand for anyway
what's the R-E-V-O-L-U
to be live
it's 2/3rds over
catch the last fight
it just might be the best ten minutes of your life
come here it's not close to over
cuz it's gonna last forever
