\”Won\’t Get Fooled Again\” is the classic rock\’n\’roll call to arms for refuseniks and the disenfranchised. Composer Pete Townshend said about writing the song \”There was a transition in me from refusal to be co-opted by activists, to a refusal to be judged by people I found jaded and compliant\”.

It is the final track on The Who\’s 1971 album Who\’s Next. Uploaded here in it\’s full glory, a drastically edited single version reached #15 in the US and #9 on the UK charts.

Lyrics:

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 judgment 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
And I\’ll get on my knees and pray
We don\’t get fooled again
Don\’t get fooled again

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that\’s all
But 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
And I\’ll get on my knees and pray
We don\’t get fooled again
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?

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
