WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the foe, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya?

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

¡NO NOS ENGAÑARÁN OTRA VEZ!

Estaremos luchando en las calles
con nuestros hijos a nuestros pies,
y la moral que ellos adoran se irá.
Y los hombres que nos
estimularon
se sentarán en el banquillo de los acusados
por todo lo malo que decidieron y el rifle cantará la canción.

Inclinaré mi sombrero por la nueva constitución,
cojo un arco para la nueva revolución,
sonrío y hago muecas al cambio que hay alrededor,
cojo mi guitarra y toco
justo como ayer,
entonces me pongo de rodillas y rezo:
¡No nos engañarán otra vez!

El cambio ha de venir,
siempre lo hemos sabido;
fuimos liberados de estar doblados, eso es todo
y el mundo parecía justo el mismo,
y la historia no cambió
porque las banderas están hondeando en la próxima guerra.

Me apartaré a mí y a mi familia a un lado
si nos ocurre que nos dejen estar medio vivos,
cogeré todos mis papeles y sonreiré al cielo, aunque sé que los hipnotizados nunca mienten,
¿no crees?

No hay nada en las calles
que me parezca diferente,
y las consignas son reemplazadas por el adiós,
y los partidos de izquierdas
son ahora los partidos de derechas,
y las barbas se han hecho todas más largas durante la noche.
Descubres que el nuevo jefe
es igual que el viejo jefe
