Cuscatlan

i love my country

but it wears a uniform

it speaks with foreign guns

in the background you can almost hear

the sound of intervention

and i don't know when liberty fell

but we rang every mission bell

we rang them loud and clearly

for a world that wouldn't listen

i don't want to die

i'm as innocent as anybody

i don't even know how to spell

revolutionary

jesus in the sky

the bullets in the guns

you don't even know what we

mean by repression

blood is the colour of the sunset

you walked into the darkness

i did not hear your last breath

there will not be an inquest

this is not human interest

we danced the dirt with

surrender for our drumbeat

we danced for the balance sheet

died for the kind of lasting peace

that pleases the world policeman

and fatherland raped motherhood

and told her it was for the global good

and now we ring the mission bell

to warn their children

and i don't want to die

i'm as innocent as anybody

i don't even know how to spell

revolutionary

jesus in the sky

the bullets in the guns

you don't even know what we

mean by repression

blood is the colour of the sunset

you walked into the darkness

i did not hear your last breath

there will not be an inquest

this is not human interest
