Lyrics
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Two leaders try to speak, but they don't make a sound, no
Autocrats run, but they don't move around, Lord
Big money mergers, but does that move ya?
X-Ray vision, I see right through ya
Do you remember when it was all bleak and black?
When the old man move forwards, and he never looked back?
But no one has a job, no, it's crime and torture
Cocaine epidemic and steel vultures
Stuck inside a fire that is a clearing
Superpower contenders no one is daring
One superpower left psychotic killer
Worldwide assault ya, and it's a thriller
You don't wanna be the one who's got to go to jail
If you're lucky, I.M.F. will hook you up and you'll make bail
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
The menace of success oppress rebellion
The men who play chess with the human weapons
The rally of ideas is the question
The city awaits total annihilation
Living under the muzzle of a gun
This is no holiday in the sun
It's disturbing its subversion
"V" is not for victory but for the vacant homes
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Bring on the days of wine and roses
Riot squads and fire hoses
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Oh, yeah
