作词 : Garrett, Hirst, Moginie ... | |
Up there on the platform | |
He is speaking to the people | |
The people are responding | |
With clapping and a'cheering | |
But the meaning of the message | |
Not revealed to those assembled | |
They're taken for a ride | |
Taken in his stride | |
When the generals talk | |
You better listen to him | |
When the generals talk | |
You better do what he say | |
There's a rumour in the ranking | |
Someone's talking insurrection | |
So the general has a purge | |
'cos he wants to win elections | |
With the certain satisfaction | |
That the people are appeased | |
Long live the revoluton | |
The general's very pleased | |
Sitting on the fence both ears to the ground | |
The fat cats still push the thin cats around | |
