paroles de chanson Swiss Radio International - Orchestral Manoeuvres In the Dark

The youth and the Imperialist Tribune was also addressed by a young girl
From Nicaragua whose hands had been cut off at the wrists by the former
Samosa guards.
Veronica Merco, of the German Federal Republic, had this to say:

Aber ich habe eine Ausbildung gemacht
Ak Industrie Kaufmann und...?

I? m a shop assistant at the...?
And I must say I? m a shop assistant by profession,
But it is difficult for...?

Now and then a little thing gets by.
Now and then we? ll cry.

Like a fall in a war, like a mother? s open arms.
Like a pawn in a game, hard to take.
There we sit on a line, wasting fortunes at a time, and pray.

All the time we are gone, there? s no reason, there? s no way.
Oh, the soul is the one so they say.
There we sit on a line, wasting fortunes at a time, and play.

She never thought he? d be this way.
Her arms aloft, she holds.
But now it? s all a memory.
And it? s gone...
