I have emailed kea@jarrahrecords.com to get John Butler involved with this Ron Paul scandal that is unfolding before our eyes! Ron Pauls sloga " Revolution" is also Johns slogan. Email her as a Ron paul fan and ask John to HELP with this battle for Liberty & Justice!!!! Here are Johns lyrics for his song Revolution. John should come do a show with Ron Paul supporters. The best of two worlds.

Revolution Lyrics
Performed by John Butler Trio
Review The Song (3)
Send "Revolution" Ringtone to your Cell
So tell me family now what do you think ?
Watch it all go down the great big sink.
Watch how the scum it rises to the top.
Don't you wonder when it's all gonna stop?
Sometimes I wonder how we do sleep,
serving the dodgy companies we keep.
All kicking and scrounging for the very first place -
dictionary definition of a rat race.
Pay off those losers we elect to lead,
stealing from the mouths that we're meant to feed.
Enslaving the very clothes upon my back,
I feel the sting but I hear no crack, no crack, I'm saying

Running through the fire, running through the flame,
running through the hatred, pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and shame,
revolution already underway.

Big Heavy Pirates man digging those holes,
messing with something that they can't control.
Tresspassing lands where they don't belong,
all I hear is screaming where there once were songs.
I got my brothers there fighting those wars,
fighting over scraps and scraping their souls.
Under a blanket of a fire and pride
that can't keep us warm for the cold inside,
inside, I'm saying

Running through the fire, running through the flame,
running through the hatred, pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and shame,
revolution already underway.

So tell me when you think we're gonna rise?
Wake from this slumber wipe the tears from our eyes?
Yes from this nightmare yes I must now wake,
open my fist my destiny I take !
Good people sick and tired of being pushed around,
we call them kings but I see no crown.
Tell me when you think we'll just stand up,
say enough is enough is enough,enough I'm saying

Running through the fire, running through the flame,
running through the hatred, pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and shame,
revolution already underway.

Take back your feet, take back your hands.
Take back your words, take back your lands.
Take back your heart, take back your pride.
Don't got to run, don't got to hide.
Revolution.

I advise John to keep distance from any partisan campain or alignment with one, because one can achieve more independant of such a comitment.
Furthermore, there is always more to things than meets the eye... politics and political machinations are like an onion... layer upon layer upon layer with a stinky core... sometimes rotten.
Think about it.

There is no 'exclusive' slogan in the use of the word 'revolution' as you suggest, and John reflects upon the real use/meaning is more to do with taking the word and removing the 'R' ... evolution.
Think about it.

Realise you can't do much by internet lobbying, and that cross posting in forums is generally not well regarded.
Doing so may alienate you. Think carefully about this.

Anyhow, chill out or get militant... this clip and lyrics might help, if you think about it...

Revolution

Revelation reveals the truth - revelation.
(revolution, revolution, revolution - oooo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
(revolution - oooo-doo-doo-doo-doo)

It takes a revolution (revolution) to make a solution;
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
Too much confusion (aaa-aaah), so much frustration, eh!
I don't wanna live in the park (live in the park);
Can't trust no shadows after dark (shadows after dark), yeah-eh!
So, my friend, I wish that you could see,
Like a bird in the tree, the prisoners must be free, yeah! (free)

Never make a politician (aaa-aaah) grant you a favour;
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
They will always want (aaa-aaah) to control you forever, eh!
(forever, forever)
So if a fire make it burn (make it burn, make it burn)
And if a blood make ya run (make ya run, run, run),
Rasta de 'pon top (aaa-aaah), can't you see? (doo-doo-doo-doo)
So you can't predict the flop. Eh-eh! (doo-doo-doo-doo)

We got lightning (lightning), thunder (thunder),
brimstone (brimstone) and fire - fire (fire, fire);
Lightning (lightning), thunder (thunder),
brr-brimstone (brimstone) and fire - fiyah - fire - fiyah!
(fire, fire)

Kill, cramp and paralyze all weak at conception;
(aaa-aaah, doo-doo-doo-doo)
Wipe them out of creation (creation), yeah-eah! (creation)
Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! (creation)
Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! (creation)

Oh! Let i'es is i'es (i'es), in i'es is black (i'es),
In i'es is red (i'es), in i'es is dread.

Let righteousness cover the earth
Like the water (aaa-aaah) cover the sea, yeah! Yeah!

Lightning (lightning), doo-doo-doo (thunder),
doo-doo-doo (brimstone), doo-doo-doo (fire, fire);
A lightning (lightning), thunder (thunder),
brimstone (brimstone) and fire.

"Politics and political machinations are like an onion... layer upon layer upon layer with a stinky core... sometimes rotten."

Here in the USA this is a fight to get rid of the rotten onions. I have never been so politically active as I am with Ron Paul.
He is fighting for the people. People are rallying for him. Crowds in the thousands. He wants peace, liberty, and prosperity through cutting our foreign spending. Like a $1 billion dollar embassy in Iraq...get rid of it. The US has spent 4 trillion on the all the latest wars etc. Needs to come to a stop and Ron Paul can do it.
John is a true hero in fighting injustice and we would appreciate any help.

I am trying to educate people that have given up hope. Ron can restore the hope in America. we can have a President that we have faith in and can follow with pride and integrity.

Peace to you all. RonPaul2012.com check him out and he will change your mind. He will fire you up!

[SirWilliamCrookes]

The revolution that John sings about is the same revolution that Ron Paul is kickstarting in America and across the world.

Its a rebellion of the intelligent made entirely possible by the internet. Ron Paul and his campaign is the greatest expression of this rebellion to date.

Every freedom loving human on the planet should get behind people like Ron Paul because he's one of the few politicians in the world fighting for us.

One of my favourite writers on the subject is Jay Weidner. Heres a couple of his articles.
