lirik lagu nicaragua – bruce cockburn
breakfast woodsmoke on the breeze —
on the cliff the u.s. emb-ssy
frowns out over managua like dracula’s tower
the kid who guards fonseca’s tomb
cradles a beat-up submachine gun —
at age fifteen he’s a veteran of four years of war
proud to pay his dues
he knows who turns the screws
baby face and old man’s eyes
blue lagoon and flowering trees —
bullet-packed masaya streets
full of the ghosts of the heroes of monimbo
women of the town laundry
work and gossip and laugh at me —
they don’t believe i’ll ever send them the pictures i took
for every scar on a wall
there’s a hole in someone’s heart
where a loved one’s memory lives
in the flash of this moment
you’re the best of what we are —
don’t let them stop you now
nicaragua
sandino in his tom mix hat
gazes from billboards and coins
“sandino vive in la lucha por la paz”
sandino of the shining dream
who stood up to the u.s. marines —
now washington panics at u2 shots of “cuban-style” latrines
in the flash of this moment
you’re the best of what we are —
don’t let them stop you now
nicaragua
managua february 1983
