Manhattan Transfer - Dead Or Alive Lyrics
The rule of the tyrants declineThe year, 1979From uganda to nicaraguaIt's bombs and bullets all the timeSo they corrupt, so they vileSo it's coup after coup all the whileHuman rights they violateThey think they too damn greatSo in disgrace now they live in exileGairy is a wanted manIdi amin is a wanted manShah of iran tried so hard to surviveHe too was wanted dead or aliveStrikes, demonstrations & warsInjustice is always the causePoliticians turn too soon fromPoor people into tycoonsCorruption must bring harassSouth african vorster resign in disgraceMuzurewa take away ian smith placeThe uganda devil was easily cat straddledBeaten up and chased, what a waste.Gairy is a wanted manBokassa is a wanted manAli bhutto try so hard to surviveHe too was wanted dead or alive.The shah had a short time to liveBecause the ayatollah don't forgiveWhen you see church ruling stateWith pure vengeance and hateSituation must be explosiveGeneral somoza from nicaraguaThought it was easy with the sandanistasWith the help of venezuela, panama and cubaThey kick him straight to americaGairy is a wanted manPark chung hee was a wanted manAchem pong tried so hard to surviveHe too was wanted dead or aliveGairy is a wanted manIdi amin is a wanted manShah of iran tried so hard to surviveHe too was wanted dead or aliveBang...you're dead
