REVOLVER Lyrics

Artist: Rage Against The Machine
Album: Evil Empire

His spit is worth more than her work
Pass the purse to the pugilists
He's a prizefighter
And he bought rings and he owns kin
And now he's swingin'
And now he's the champion
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver

A spotless domain
Hides festering hopes she's certain there's more
Pictures of fields without fences
A spotless domain
Hides festering hopes she's certain there's more
Pictures of fields without fences
Her body numbs as he approaches the door
As he approaches the door
As he approaches the door
As he approaches the door
As he approaches
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!

Yeah!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?
Revolver!
Revolver!
Revolver!
Revolver!
Revolver

by Danny on 9/10/2008 7:51pm This song is about the Stanford Prison Experiment
by jeremy cordova on 9/18/2008 1:08pm anny, as in the milgram experiment?
by jake on 9/19/2008 9:57pm Generally speaking, it seems like this song could be about how so many fathers are killed fighting wars and then mothers have to take over raising the kids by themselves, thus becoming the father and the mother at the same time.
by kalash on 2/9/2009 10:43am don't see how you think it could be about the stanford prison experiment... the first verse seems to hint at the 'second shift' that women play--they being the main laborers of domestic work, for which they don't get recognition or a wage. then it hints at domestic abuse. i think the chorus 'don't mothers make good fathers' speaks to how women are the primary caregivers for children, and de la rocha is lamenting that the burden of childcare is assumed to be the responsibility of women. the second verse speaks to the classic domestic role that women have been assigned to in western society. her housework is done, the house looks immaculately clean, but her deeper interests are rotting away as she's trapped in the house. she dreams of fields without fences--outside the jailcell of her home to a place where there are no walls or boundaries. check out charlotte gilman's 'the yellow wallpaper.'

by johnson on 10/12/2009 7:19am I do agree with kalash, because de la rocha lived with his mother for most of his life without his father.
