    Lyrics
    [Verse 1]
    Mr Lenin - awaken the boy
    Mr Stalin - bisexual epoch
    Khrushchev - self love in his mirrors
    Brezhnev - married into group sex
    Gorbachev - celibate self importance
    Yeltsin - failure is his own impotence
    [Chorus]
    Revol
    Revol
    Revol
    Revol
    Lebensraum
    Kulturkampf
    Raus raus
    Fila fila
    [Verse 2]
    Napoleon - childhood sweethearts
    Chamberlain - you see God in you
    Trotsky - Honeymoon, serenade the naked
    Che Guevara - you're all target now
    Pol Pot - withdrawn traces, bye bye
    Farrakhan - alimony alimony
    [Chorus]
    Revol
    Revol
    Revol
    Revol
    Lebensraum
    Kulturkampf
    Raus raus
    Fila fila

    Revol
    Revol
    So, let them revol

    That said, James Dean Bradfield is astounding. I can't think of another musician that could have turned the Holy Bible lyrics into such musical masterpieces.

      Why are you saying this? I was 17 and loved that teenage angst you call "crap". Richey was more into his own shit than Cobain. But he created very good lyrics full of historical references

    I've grown up listening to Manics since I was born (in 1994 so I never saw them at their peak but my Dad has always loved them) and I've seen them live twice in Wolverhampton in 2011 and 2013, yet every time I listen to them they get better and better. I've never known a band to command such passion and fury so articulately. They are fucking heroes.

    It is kind of amazing this album had any radio singles because it is so justifiably Angry and articulate. That biz would never fly in the U.S. but the 90's were such a special time for being pissed off because the same pre-Internet people were taking notes. Manics were the Keats to Smashing Pumpkins' more digestible Dr. Seuss but the message was the same - if you feel trapped or cut off, Know Your Enemy and shine a light on their misdirection. The Ramones' Censorshit was another fine example.

    The first verse seems to be about the development and then failure of a person, the second verse about the start and end of a romantic relationship. The Fascist chorus part also seems like a journey from start to ending in failure too.

      Nothing. Richey wrote plenty of songs that did make sense. This was more of a stream of consciousness yell at and about nothing in particular.

      Yeah, that's true. A song here and there in that style is well within acceptability. I'm just an asshole.

      I don't agree that it's complete nonsense; it's reducing famous historical figures down to the most basic (trashy) human levels .. deconstructing icons and doing it very eloquently, reminding us that they were just very flawed human beings, like everyone else.

      REVOL/LOVER (this should be the right name of the song) x

      Richey's comments on this were : "Revol/Lover - All adolescent leaders of men FAILED. All love FAILS. If men of the calibre of Lenin and Trotsky failed, then how can anyone expect anything to change? Won't get fooled again."
