Zapata's Blood

Wasn't spilt in vein

Of the debt of the most poor, most poor, most poor

We'll wage, we'll wage

To reclaim our name

Zapata's Blood

Wasn't spilt in vein

Of the debt of the most poor, most poor, most poor

We'll wage, we'll wage

To reclaim our terrain

On January 1st, 1994

The indigenous farmers of Southern Mexico

Declared war on an unjust

And illigitimate government

Of the debt of the most wild, the most poor

Came a just arm struggle

For democracy, justice, and liberty

And it won't stop until that 65 year old dictatorship,

The Partido Revolucionario Institucional

Is buired in the ground

And the people's voicce is heard once again

So check it out:

On January 1st, they became known as

The Zapatista movement

And they have a saying, and I want you all to

Sing along with me real quick.

It goes something like this

It goes, everything for everyone...

And nothing for ourselves.

Everything for everyone, and nothing for ourselves!
