I can't believe some of the posts on this thread are on a Clash site, glorifying American invasions. Here's a few words to think about:
Oh! Mama, Mama look there!
Your children are playing in that street again
Don't you know what happened down there?
A youth of fourteen got shot down there
The Kokane guns of Jamdown Town
The killing clowns, the blood money men
Are shooting those Washington bullets again
As every cell in Chile will tell
The cries of the tortured men
Remember Allende, and the days before,
Before the army came
Please remember Victor Jara,
In the Santiago Stadium,
Es verdad - those Washington Bullets again
And in the Bay of Pigs in 1961,
Havana fought the playboy in the Cuban sun,
For Castro is a colour,
Is a redder than red,
Those Washington bullets want Castro dead
For Castro is the colour...
...That will earn you a spray of lead
For the very first time ever,
When they had a revolution in Nicaragua,
There was no interference from America
Human rights in America
Well the people fought the leader,
And up he flew...
With no Washington bullets what else could he do?
And just to point out to all the posters who feel superior to America, lest you forget...
'N' if you can find a Afghan rebel
That the Moscow bullets missed
Ask him what he thinks of voting Communist...
...Ask the Dalai Lama in the hills of Tibet,
How many monks did the Chinese get?
In a war-torn swamp stop any mercenary,
'N' check the British bullets in his armoury
Que?
Sandinista!
On a different not, His Holiness the Dalai Lama is visiting my city, Dundee, during his Scottish visit this year, and if I get the chance I will ask.
Panama was the best invasion and the fact you didn't include it in the vote is very sad.
1. Made short work of a bananna republic army.
2. Minimum of dead bodies.
3. Took back control of the canal with new puppet (replacing old puppet who was put in place by USA, replacing non puppet)
4. Got USA peice of the coke distrubtion $ back from the puppet who was taking to much $ and not playing by the rules, see #3

OK I have thought about it and it's a great song. If only I knew what the fuck it meant.
Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty
We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.
