MALE CHORUS |
|
Vive la Commune De Paris |
|
For the love of God |
|
IN the name of freedom |
|
For the crippled and the poor |
|
RINGMASTER |
|
The bells ring out the tambourine beats |
|
The rise and fall of voices |
|
The sound of marching feet |
|
Signals the demise of the Capet dynasty |
|
TROUBLEMAKER |
|
It's not whether now but when |
|
The King and Queen have only men |
|
From Switzerland to defend the Tuileries |
|
Remorseless as a rising tide |
|
The san culottes prepare to die |
|
Vive la Commune de Paris |

If you don't use it |

The powers that be will abuse it |

Give up but half of our power |

And you'll get shafted |
