Chumbawamba - Tiananmen Square lyrics
[Chumbawamba - Tiananmen Square lyrics]
Heads bowed, eyes down, here comes the enemy
To hail the people's victory!
Which people? What victory?
It's the People's Army that
Murdered the people
They've come to glue the shattered
Battered statues in the square
Heads bowed, eyes down, here comes the enemy
With a haircut and a trigger-finger
That could be me!
Tanks tearing a hole in the silence
I've got armor-piercing rockets in
My pocket -watch out! (Chatter)
You must've seen it
The boy in the white shirt
You want a fight? yeah, you and whose army?
The people is bigger than the People's Army
My dad is bigger than your dad, and one day
One day raw and angry in front of the enemy
So it's turn back or kill boy versus tank
You want a fight? yeah, you and whose army?
Here soldier
Have a watermelon -this'll cool you down!
To hail the people's victory!
Which people? What victory?
It's the People's Army that
Murdered the people
They've come to glue the shattered
Battered statues in the square
Heads bowed, eyes down, here comes the enemy
With a haircut and a trigger-finger
That could be me!
Tanks tearing a hole in the silence
I've got armor-piercing rockets in
My pocket -watch out! (Chatter)
You must've seen it
The boy in the white shirt
You want a fight? yeah, you and whose army?
The people is bigger than the People's Army
My dad is bigger than your dad, and one day
One day raw and angry in front of the enemy
So it's turn back or kill boy versus tank
You want a fight? yeah, you and whose army?
Here soldier
Have a watermelon -this'll cool you down!
