Oh come around girl
Pretty Polly will sing a song
Said some around girl
Pretty Polly will sing a song
About a South American nation
In 1954
Guatemala's born a new
In the last ten years
Guatemala's born a new
In the last ten years
The common man his own master
No longer in fear
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
Slave labour's cut
For the last ten years
Slave labour's cut
For the last ten years
US profits
Have been fallin' every year
Lobby man to the CIA says
Don't you owe me one
Lobby man to the CIA says
Don't you owe me too?
Overthrow their president in a military coup
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
The General says to his president
I will drink your blood like wine
The General says to his president
I will drink your blood like wine
Twenty thousand people
Will be on borrowed time
In the streets you hear dogs bark
They got somethin' on their minds
In the streets you hear dogs bark
They got somethin' on their minds
But the men sit still they cannot go out of line
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
Democracy's a failin'
And I wish somebody cared
Democracy's a failin'
And I wish somebody cared
Propaganda drives that money
And corruption takes her there
Capitol Hill not a word
The boys in blue never weep
Capitol Hill not a word
The boys in blue never weep
They've swallowed the lies
On their tongues that help them sleep
Communism they said was the only evil here
