The lyrics express frustration with oppressive rules, the division between the rich and poor, and the endless cycle of war.

Despite the bleak reality, the song carries a strong sense of hope and resistance. It anticipates the inevitable fall of the powerful and envisions a future where people unite in the ruins of oppression, celebrating their newfound freedom. The repeated chant of “Viva la revolution” serves as both a rallying cry and a declaration of resistance, emphasizing the desire for a radical transformation of society.
With its raw energy and call to action, “Viva La Revolution” is a battle cry for those who refuse to submit, standing as an anthem of unity and defiance against corruption and tyranny.

Viva La Révolution lyrics
All those stupid rules
Made for stupid fools
To follow and obey
As long as there’s rich and poor
As long as there’s war after war
I’ll never bow to you I say
My world you’ve destroyed
Like it’s your private toy
To do with as you please
What good have you done
You corrupt everything under the sun
Like a cancerous disease
I wait for the day
When your power decays
And your light goes out
Then we will be free
We’ll walk through your debris
And join our hands and shout
In unification
Viva la revolution
Viva la revolution
Viva la revolution
All those stupid rules
Made for stupid fools
To follow and obey
As long as there’s rich and poor
As long as there’s war after war
I’ll never bow to you I say
My world you’ve destroyed
Like it’s your private toy
To do with as you please
What good have you done
You corrupt everything under the sun
Like a cancerous disease
I wait for the day
When your power decays
And your light goes out
Then we will be free
We’ll walk through your debris
And join our hands and shout
In unification
Viva la revolution
Viva la revolution
Viva la revolution
