"oh! mama, mama, look there
your children are playing in that street again,
don't you know what happened down there?
a youth of 14 got shot down there...

the kokane guns of jam down town
the killing clowns, the blood money man,
are shoting those Washington bullets again.

as every cell in Chile will tell,
the cry of the tortured men,
remember Allende, and the days before,
before the army come,
please remember Victor Jara,
in the Santiago Stadium,
es verdad -- those Washington bullets again.

the Bay of Pigs -- in 1961,
Havan for the playboys in the cuban sun,
for Castro is a colour,
is redder than red,
those Washington bullets want Castro dead.

for Castro is the colour...
... that will earn you a spray of lead.

for the very first time ever,
when they had a revolution in Nicaragua.
there was no interference from America,
human rights from amerika!

well the people fought the leader,
and up the flew...
with no Washington bullets whatelse could he do?

'n if you can find an afgan rebel
that the Moscow bullets missed
ask him what he thinks of voting communist...

... ask the Dalai Lama in the hills of Tibet,
how many monks did the chinese get?...

... in a war-torn swamp stop any mercenary,
'n check the britih bullets in his armoury...
que?...

...Sandinista!"
