The Ballad of 1968’s Revolution

 

They told us to go home

Folding down our flags

And forgetting about our slogans!

"Such a craziness

 To Change the World!!

But what kind of madness!?

It’s not a randomness they are all hippies!!

We really need a strong man!

Here you can see them

these drug addicts

invading the streets

shouting bullshit!

And what do they have to do with Vietnam?
Someone has finally to decide

The use of the iron fist:

Let’s disperse that crowd!"

 

II

Hello comrades

Let’s get out of our homes

Dust off your flags

let's go back screaming our slogans!

 

The '68’s revolution is never finished

and even now, we want peace!

Crucify whom I say!

 

Our yesterday enemies

Are here to fight with us

For building a better world!

 

And you barons

begin to tremble

your domain

has the counted days:

out the barons from the school!

 

III

 

And they keep on saying

Just stay at home boys

And forget your slogans

It’s up to us

To solve everything:

Start looking   the world with our eyes!
