Lyrics
Seoul Music
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There'll be new events in Seoul '88
Throwing the molotov and the hundred meter loot
Hurdling over barricades putting the brick
Vaulting over riot cops in the peoples Olympics
The people are angry and the boss is running scared
The Olympics of the Oppressed, and the boss is running scared
People are content with Olympic prestige
It means the poor are evicted to house the rich
Let big business move in and advertise
To gloss over the reality of Korean daily life
But the people are angry and the boss is running scared
The Olympics of the Oppressed and the boss is running scared
