Peking Spring

[Verse 1]

Standing in the middle of Peking Square

Yeah, the Red Guard knows I'm here

There's unrest potential in the Chinese sky

The poster goes up, expose the lie

[Chorus]

I don't know what I can do

I don't know what to expect

All I know is I better act now

Carpe diem, seize the day

Before the day is through

[Verse 2]

My mother and my father, they worry about me

Losing my thought at the university

The Russians to the North, the Cong to the South

Science can wait, democracy now

[Chorus]

All my gods right on the wall

Pictures of Marx and Chairman Mao

But their words leave me hungry

They leave me no choice

Imperial West, 'tis of thee I sing

[Post-Chorus]

Peking Spring

Peking Spring

Peking Spring

[Verse 3]

These people are killers that's me on me

The party holds the rights to my destiny

Who knows what's next, a call to arms

Remind everyone that I'm on the fall

[Chorus]

All my gods right on the wall

Pictures of Marx and Chairman Mao

But their words leave me hungry

And they leave me no choice

Imperial West, 'tis of thee I sing

[Post-Chorus]

Peking Spring

Peking Spring

Peking Spring

[Outro]

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
