Manic Street Preachers Baby Elian Lyrics

Baby Elian lyrics

Blockades won't win you more votes
A Cuban adjustment act
Offer the world a dream
Dress it up - it's blackmail

Internal matter they say
For two million dollars a day
Maybe a future in film
But Cuban boxers still win

Kidnapped - to the promised land
The Bay Of Pigs
Or baby Elian
Operation - Peter Pan
America
The Devil's playground

Baby Elian
Baby Elian

Across the unfair divide
Where black will never meet white
So read my token lips
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/manic-street-preachers-lyrics/baby-elian-lyrics.html }
As if they never exist

You cannot buy a nation
Not even Miami mob
We follow a shining path
That you will never destroy

Kidnapped - to the promised land
The Bay Of Pigs
Or baby Elian
Operation - Peter Pan
America
The Devil's playground

You don't just sit in a rocking chair
When you've built a revolution
You don't just sit in a rocking chair
When you've built a revolution

Baby Elian
Baby Elian
