China Song Lyrics

China Song lyrics

Do you remember that day back in 1989?
In Beijing some kids built a statue
in a square..
They made it out of paper
And they sang songs in the
street
They only wanted to be heard
and a new age to greet
They
didn't call it revolution
They didn't call nobody wrong..
In that
moment a bright promise bloomed
but the old guard stood opposed
It
was then that the lines were drawn
but lines of battle, none supposed
Then in came the artillary
and in their way stood one man..
He held
back all the tanks
with his bare, upheld hands
Then the tv crews were
all scattered
so no blood was shown on no hands
Do you remember that
day back in 1989?
In Beijing a statue was burned in a square..
But
nothing really happened
whatever the secret envoys all ignored
It was
then that the slate was wiped clean
as clean as they could afford
To
hell with those who care to forget
those who died on that day..
Do
you remember that day back in 1989?
In Beijing some kids built a statue in
a square..
