Roger Taylor - Revelation lyrics

(Roger Taylor)

I went to the ukraine

They don't have much to eat

No sugar on the table

But the people stay sweet

I've been to the third world

They've got nothing but hope

Through the starving and dying

Sometimes somehow they cope

It was a revelation - a revelation -

A revelation to me

I've been to the u.s.

Promised land of the free

With the workless and homeless

Begging on every street

It was a revelation - a revelation -

A revelation to me

Revelation, it was a revelation

And right here in europe

Far as can be seen

Butter mountains and wine lakes

That much food it's obscene

Now you can label me stupid

Or naive with this song

But when children are starving

I know what's right and what's wrong

It was a revelation - a revelation -

A revelation to me
