She's a rebel, she's a saint
She's the salt of the earth, and she's dangerous
She's a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
From Chicago to Toronto
She's the one that they call ol' Whatsername
She's a symbol of resistance
And she's holding on my heart like a hand grenade
Is she dreaming what I'm thinking?
Is she the mother of all bombs? Gonna detonate
Is she trouble like I'm trouble?
Make it a double twist of fate or a melody that
She sings the revolution
The dawning of our lives
She brings this liberation
That I just can't define
Well, nothing comes to mind (Hey!)
She sings the revolution
The dawning of our lives
She brings this liberation
That I just can't define
Well, nothing comes to mind
She's a rebel, she's a saint
She's the salt of the earth, and she's dangerous
She's a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
She's a rebel, she's a saint
She's the salt of the earth, and she's dangerous
She's a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
She's a rebel, she's a rebel
She's a rebel, and she's dangerous
She's a rebel, she's a rebel
She's a rebel, and she's dangerous
