|
| 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 |
