(Mason, Thomas)


Down on the pampas they've got trouble on the campus

Where the students are revolting and the businessmen are mean

They've got plans for the Presidente - who needs El Presedente?

He don't help nobody...


Out on the islands, all that sunshine and violence

They say close down the casinos, and open up the bank

They've got plans for the government, who needs a government?

They don't help nobody...


Roll - heads are rolling, all around the world

Roll - heads are rolling, somebody pointing a finger at you


In the deserts and the jungles, there's an old familiar rumble

It's the natives getting restless, the guerrillas turning mean

They're headed for the White House, they're ready for a wipe-out

This crowd is looking ugly...


Got trouble on the hippie trail, an army's getting greedy

Everybody's getting nervous, can you tell me what it means?

They've got plans for Afghanistan, they've got their eyes on Pakistan

Don't it make you feel uneasy?
