When Anastasio fell he was by then the third Somoza
To have had Nicaragua like a kingdom along his blood-line
Where the national guard wore the family crest
In a family business tied to the west
But he was overthrown by those who would share their land with millions
Overthrown by those who would be free of the ox's life
So it is to our shame the West would aim to cut that freedom down
Burn Again! Must Nicaragua burn again!?
Turn Again! Must Nicaragua turn again!?
Because there's a mood today in the USA
To be born again
Born again!? Must Nicaragua burn again!?
The USA begins in a war of independence
When liberty stood tall in the constitution
But that torch today casts a giant doubt
When the senate sends the contras out
To hunt them down, hunt them in the clinics and the classrooms
To hunt them down, hunt them and destroy the free elections
And it is to our shame that the West would aim
To cut that freedom down
Burn Again! Must Nicaragua burn again!?
Burn Again! Must Nicaragua burn again!?
Because there's a mood today in the USA
To be born again
Born again!? Must Nicaragua burn again!?
They play Central America
Like it's a line of fruit machines
They take the beans for the grinder
And they meet the bill with bullets and marines
