Get Around Town
Revolver Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Get around town gentlemen
It's the bodies count down, the body counts down
Get around town gentlemen
It's the bodies count down, the body counts down

We need someone, we need someone
To go to jail for us, to go to jail for us
We need someone, we need someone
To go to jail for us, to go to jail for us

You won't go home, you won't come back
You'll go to jail for us, you'll go to jail for us
You won't go home, you won't come back
You'll go to jail for us, you'll go to jail for us

Such a drama, such a war
A TV jail for us, a TV jail for us
Such a drama, such a war
A TV jail for us, a TV jail for us

Police on the old place and camera lens
You'll go to jail for us, TV jail for us




Police on the old place and camera lens
You'll go to jail for us, TV jail for us

The repeated phrase "to go to jail for us" emphasizes the importance of finding someone to take the fall for their actions.


The lyrics also reference the idea of a "TV jail," perhaps alluding to the media sensationalism that often surrounds high-profile criminal cases.

Overall, the lyrics of Get Around Town touch on themes of guilt, responsibility, and the idea of sacrificing oneself for the sake of a group. Its ambiguous ending leaves room for interpretation as to whether or not the group ultimately finds someone to take the blame and face jail time.
