I've got a reason for living, I've got my eye on the sky  I know my sins are forgiven, and now I'm ready to die  When I survey all the madness, on the face of the earth  There's got to be retribution, to put an end to the curse    Countdown to the revolution  Don't you know judgment day is at hand?  Countdown to the revolution  Can't you see it's a part of the plan?    Take the law from the mountain, run to the book of life  With an army of angels, He will spare your life    Countdown to the revolution  Don't you know judgment day is at hand?  Countdown to the revolution  Can't you see it's a part of the plan?    Countdown to the revolution  It's your life in the palm of your hand  Countdown to the revolution  In the light, are you ready to stand?    Countdown to the revolution  Don't you know judgment day is at hand?  Countdown to the revolution  Can't you see it's a part of the plan?    Countdown to the revolution  It's your life in the palm of your hand  Countdown to the revolution  In the light, are you ready to stand?
