Текст песни Introduction / The Revolution Will Not Be Televised - Gil Scott-Heron
Good
evening
and
welcome,
my
name
is
Gil
Scott-Heron
My
accomplices
are,
first,
from
left
to
right
Eddie
Knowles,
a
drummer
for
the
Denise
salute
dance
group
A
drummer
for
December
dances
And
a
percussionist
for
a
group
called
"Black
& Blues"
The
brother
to
my
immediate
left
is
Charlie
Saunders
Of
December
dance
group
and
a
former
drummer
for
Loretta
Parker
David
Barnes,
a
singer
of
"Black
& Blues"
will
be
heard
later
on
in
the
evening
We'd
like
to
do
a
poem
for
you,
called
"The
revolution
will
not
be
televised"
Primarily,
because
it
won't
be
You
will
not
be
able
to
stay
home,
brother
You
will
not
be
able
to
plug
in,
turn
on
and
cop
out
You
will
not
be
able
to
lose
yourself
on
skag
And
skip
out
for
beer
during
commercials
Because
the
revolution
will
not
be
televised
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised
The
revolution
will
not
be
brought
to
you
by
Xerox
In
four
parts
without
commercial
interruptions
The
revolution
will
not
show
you
pictures
of
Nixon
Blowing
a
bugle
and
leading
a
charge
by
John
Mitchell
General
Abrams
and
Mendel
Rivers
To
eat
Hog
maws
confiscated
from
a
Harlem
sanctuary
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised
The
revolution
will
not
be
brought
to
you
by
the
Schaefer
Award
Theatre
And
will
not
star
Natalie
Wood
and
Steve
McQueen
or
Bullwinkle
and
Julia
The
revolution
will
not
give
your
mouth
sex
appeal
The
revolution
will
not
get
rid
of
the
nubs
The
revolution
will
not
make
you
look
five
pounds
thinner
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised,
brother
There
will
be
no
pictures
of
you
and
Willie
Mae
Pushing
that
shopping
cart
down
the
block
on
the
dead
run
Or
trying
to
slide
that
color
TV
into
a
stolen
ambulance
NBC
will
not
be
able
to
predict
the
winner
at
8:32
Or
report
from
29
districts
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised
There
will
be
no
pictures
of
pigs
shooting
down
brothers
in
the
instant
replay
There
will
be
no
pictures
of
Whitney
Young
Being
run
out
of
Harlem
on
a
rail
with
a
brand
new
process
There
will
be
no
slow
motion
or
still
life
of
Roy
Wilkins
Strolling
through
Watts
In
a
Red,
Black
and
Green
liberation
jumpsuit
that
he
had
been
saving
For
just
the
right
occasion
Green
Acres,
The
Beverly
Hillbillies,
and
Hooterville
Junction
Will
no
longer
be
so
Goddamn
relevant
And
women
will
not
care
if
Dick
finally
screwed
Jane
on
Search
for
Tomorrow
Because
Black
people
will
be
in
the
street
looking
for
a
brighter
day
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised
There
will
be
no
highlights
on
the
11
o'clock
news
And
no
pictures
of
hairy
armed
women
Liberationists
And
Jackie
Onassis
blowing
her
nose
The
theme
song
will
not
be
written
by
Jim
Webb
Or
Francis
Scott
Key,
nor
sung
by
Glen
Campbell
Tom
Jones,
Johnny
Cash,
or
Englebert
Humperdink
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised
The
revolution
will
not
be
right
back
after
a
message
About
a
white
tornado,
white
lightning,
or
white
people
You
will
not
have
to
worry
about
a
Dove
in
your
bedroom
A
tiger
in
your
tank,
or
the
giant
in
your
toilet
bowl
The
revolution
will
not
go
better
with
Coke
The
revolution
will
not
fight
the
germs
that
may
'cause
bad
breath
The
revolution
will
put
you
in
the
driver's
seat
The
revolution
will
not
be
televised,
will
not
be
televised
Not
be
televised
The
revolution
will
be
no
re-run
brothers
The
revolution
will
be
live
Thank
you
