Beat Happening

Beat Happening is an American indie pop and punk rock band formed in Olympia, Washington in 1982. Calvin Johnson, Heather Lewis and Bret Lunsford have been the band's continual members. Beat Happening were early leaders in the American indie pop and lo-fi movements, noted for their use of primitive recording techniques, disregard for the technical aspects of musicianship, and songs with subject matters of a childish or coy nature. more »

[Verse 1]
When I was a young man, never been kissed
Started thinking it over, how much I'd missed
I hit the road to give it a try
Got a girl in Reno just to watch her cry

[Hook]
Makin' love, lettin' blood
Makin' love, lettin' blood
Revolution come and gone

[Verse 2]
I've got a hammer and I've got a well
I've got a secret that I'll never tell
The guilt and pain of all the places I've been
Ah, revolution begin

[Chorus]
Revolution come and gone
Behind your eyes, cut out the tongue
Transcend their lies, they try to hold back the dawn of revolution come and gone

[Verse 3]
Five years ago, we were intense
The rest have caught up, the world is a mess
Times got hard livin' high on the hog
Let's take our bodies and flop and plop
 

[Chorus]
Revolution come and gone
Behind your eyes, hold back the dawn of revolution come and gone
Revolution come
Revolution come and gone
Revolution come and gone

[Verse 4]
Twisting your sweater over your head
Tearing the covers off of your bed
Turning the tables to face the wind
Oh revolution, grandfather us in

[Chorus]
Revolution come and gone
Behind your eyes, cut out the tongue
Transcend their lies, they try to hold back the dawn of revolution come
Revolution gone

[Bridge]
I love watching your face redden
As we near Armageddon
Revolution come and gone

[Verse 5]
I've got a lantern and I've got a cane
A secret in the cottage at the end of the lane
A safe haven for committing a crime
We'll make love till the end of time
 

[Chorus]
Revolution come and gone
Behind your eyes, cut out the tongue
Transcend their lies, they try to hold back the dawn of revolution come and gone

Revolution come
Revolution come
Revolution come
Revolution come
Revolution come
Revolution come and gone

[Hook / Outro]
Makin' love, lettin' blood
Makin' love, lettin' blood
