You say you want a revolution Well, you know We all want to change the world You tell me that it's evolution Well, you know We all want to change the world But when you talk about destruction Don't you know that you can count me out (in) Don't you know it's gonna be All right? Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) You say you got a real solution Well, you know We'd all love to see the plan You ask me for a contribution Well, you know We're all doing what we can But if you want money for people with minds that hate All I can tell you is brother you have to wait Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) You say you'll change the constitution Well, you know We'd all love to change your head You tell me it's the institution Well, you know You better free your mind instead But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) Don't you know it's gonna be (all right) All, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all right All right, all right, all right, all right, all right Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: John Lennon / Paul James Mccartney Revolution 1 lyrics © Sony/atv Tunes Llc C.: Man, I am exhausted! I think I will call d.c. and see if he has any "words of wisdom" for me in my present situation. (Ring). d.: Hi, Cal.E. How is it going in Denver? C.: That's why I'm calling you, d.c. It is not going well. None of the working pets came to work today. I had to clean all the cages in the animal kennel and all the bathrooms in the human kennel by myself. I am glad that I ordered these work clothes from Frederick's of Hollywood before I left Canada. They were waiting for me at the hotel desk. They really came in handy. d.: Did you try to call your coworkers? C.: Yes. They all acted like they had no legs. d.:??? C.: No matter how many times I called, they were NOT coming! Additionally, they all played the song that I was playing in the background on their recorders. I did meet one nice man in the jumman kennel though... d..: What was a "nice man" doing in the human kennel? C.: He said that he went to his doctor. The doctor only gave him ten years to live. So, he committed armed robbery. The state gave him twenty years to live! d.: I think that the D.A. probably gave him twenty years to LIFE, not to live. So no one showed up for work today? C.: One cat did. This is his picture. He is not a member of the union. He was just doing his community service for a drug violation. He used performance-enhancing drugs to help him win a race with a horse! He was tested immediately afterward, and failed the drug test. The state sentenced him to sixty days of community service. He chose to do it at the kennel, with other animals.

d.: That is an Asherah cat, which is a mix of an Asian Leopard, African Serval and domestic house cat. It is a very expensive cat! C.: I suppose his owner was trying to recover some of the cost of buying him, then, by betting that he could outrun a thoroughbred racehorse. He was disqualified, though, because he was caught cheating, like your favorite baseball team, the New York Yankees (hehe).


d.: That is a sore subject. Did you ask the animals to do things that they were not capable of doing? C.: Asked asked them to do things that they did not THINK they were capable of doing. I am living proof that one can push his/her body beyond what s/he thinks s/he can do. So are you. You were an endurance athlete at one time. Didn''t you do things that you did not think you were capable of doing when you first started training to run marathons, ultra marathons and an Ironman distance triathlon? d.: Yes, Cal.E. But one must build up to his or her goals both mentally and physically. Before attempting to compete in the Iron Man, I trained for and completed four one-half Ironman distance triathlons. I completed four of my six marathons before attempting an ultra marathon. Besides, not everyone has the physical capabilities or the mental toughness to do what you were asking your coworkers to do. Start slowly and gradually increase the amount of work you ask the working pets to do. They will not notice it as much if you just increase quotas gradually. You are starting a new, unprecedented program. Take it slowly and gradually build up your program. You will be glad you did that. C.: I guess you are right. (heavy sigh). The union rep. says that the workers will come back to work tomorrow IF I will allow catnip breaks every two hours and a lunch break in the middle of a six- hour shift. They say that if I give a little, so will they. I think that is called a compromise, isn't it? d.: Yes, Cal.E. It is a situation in which neither party gets exactly what it wants, but both parties are agreeable to the terms. C.: I guess, if I pitch in and help, we can meet our quota for the day. Thanks, d.c. I need to get some rest now. I will be working hard tomorrow to set a good example. d.: Goodnight, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite! C.: BEDBUGS! Now, I am WIDE AWAKE!
