Tom Morello - Ease My Revolutionary Mind

Night is here again, baby
I'm stretched out on my bed
Seeing all kinds of crazy notions
Running through my head
I need a progressive woman
I need an awfully liberal woman
Ain't no reactionary baby
Can ease my revolutionary mind

One hand is on my pillow
One hand is on my head
I see a million nightmares
Tearing around inside my head
I need a progressive woman (yeah)
I need an awful liberal woman (yeah)
I need a social conscious woman (yeah)
To ease my revolutionary mind

If I could only make you see, babe
How I ache and pain and bleed
I know you'd come a runnin'
If you blistered both your feet
I need a progressive woman (yeah)
I need an awful liberal woman (yeah)
I need an open-minded mama (yeah)
To ease my revolutionary mind (yeah)

If you could see me here, baby
Broke out in salty sweat
No matter where you go
I know you never could forget
I need a progressive woman (yeah)
I need a liberal thinkin' woman (yeah)
I need an open-hearted mama (yeah)
To ease my revolutionary mind (yeah)

I ain't no lumpen proletariat
I ain't no petty bourgeoisie
But I'm gonna be a cold corpse
If you don't run here to me
I need a progressive shipmate (yeah)
I need a liberist nature lover (yeah)
Ain't no reactionary female (yeah)
Can ease my revolutionary mind

If you're a Republican or a Democrat
Or a white hood Ku Klux Klan
No use to ring my doorbell
'Cause I'll never be your man
I want a union working woman (yeah)
I want a progressive liberous woman (yeah)
I need an nice progressive mama (yeah)
To ease my revolutionary
Ease my revolutionary
Ease my revolutionary mind
Hey!
