Story Behind The Song
High energy rock song driven by a relentless guitar riff based Sci Fi set in future where man build a bot fight back at his boss who is a female bot. Only to find that what has built and fallen in love now turns on him.
Song Description
First part of the song sets the scene 1
High class
Revolution - revolution girl
Moves like light
Like a stealth in the night
Comes with a cold reply
She's a piece of refinement
Perfect alignment
can you feel the revolution
lasers turning
issue a thermal warning (don't you know)
Then the story warns you that the human will revoke
They'll be a revolution
Oh boy she's gonna tear it up (and)
Your never ever gonna come down
Now the song warns you may fall in love because even though she is controlling, you may be lost in her power that she welds
Oh yeah you'll be lost in her
Scene 2 - Fed up with being bossed around.
9 to 5 I work for this
revolution - revolution girl
I work under light and
all through the night (but)
when Saturday comes I'll make my own
piece of refinement
Perfect alignment
Can you feel the revolution
Lasers turning
Check it moving
You are so proud of what you have built and are developing feelings towards your own bot.
Touch it Can you feel the revolution
repeat chorus
Now verse 3 in a sense you are back to where you started (darker and more of a build)
High class
Revolution - revolution girl
Moves like light
Like a thief in the night
Now your own bot has blown a fuse and is turning on you
Is coming for me with thermal eyes
My piece of refinement
Is out of alignment
Now I get to feel the revolution
Lasers turning
Issue a thermal warning
The pretty metal thing is out of control
You now face your own creation as an enemy (irony)

Revolution Girl
High class
Revolution - revolution girl
Moves like light

They'll be a revolution
Oh boy she's gonna tear it up (and)
Your never ever gonna come down
Oh yeah you'll be lost in her

Perfect alignment

Touch it Can you feel the revolution
repeat chorus
High class
Revolution - revolution girl
Moves like light
Like a thief in the night
Is coming for me with thermal eyes
My piece of refinement
Is out of alignment
Now I get to feel the revolution
Lasers turning
Issue a thermal warning
The pretty metal thing is out of control
