lyrics

If we strike first, we might prevail
Our time is now let got the ale
Wine and bread, this is the hour
On our heads, we won’t allow
Save our homes, our right to life
For our rights, we fight and die
From Montmartre to rue Lepic
Canons brought to victory
Hot like Beelzebubbleing skin soup
Heat emissions surprise transition
Ozone layer to none
Crime college victims just released
Streets seek new economies daily
Who needs Marx in the land
of a thousand markets
Main one murder, herded on the train
Sweaty cattle in pastel gazelles
It’s five o’clock so the car’s like sardines
More like pralines coco and tan
5 AM on April 3rd
We head West attack Versailles
Chassepot lead and Drapeau high
Trousers red are bound to die
At the helm Gustave Flourens
Cluseret, WE FOLLOW STRONG
On the heights Mount Valerian
20,000 boys and men
And a battalion of mighty women !
Revolution time !!
Don't let go
Porte Maillot
Push them on to Chatillon
Neuilly raise the Barricade
Versailles in fusillade
We follow Jules Bergeret
Full on charge at Pont d’Asnières
Guns in place
Pick up our ranks
We have hearts on bayonets
We won’t lie in silence
Climb the battlements
Lock down Avenue Foch to Arc de
Triomphe
Communards guards in blue free us
Can’t you see the granite
in the glimmering rush to combat
Quick to react
When is a good time
to attack right now
Thiers is a monster bigger every minute
We can’t stop them all man !
Children fight along their dads on the
Seine along the banks
Battle ends with open guts
Some dive in and others run
Full on trapped and beaten down
Red pants fight for bourgeois crown
Capital has sharpened teeth
Resist now and keep the street
Cobble stone and musket ball
Our revolt shall never fall !
Come on now
Ready fire
Rally
I need all of you to the front lines
Guarantee we doing it this time
For our mothers
For our children
For our freedom
For this nation for Lyon
For the Marseillais rally ay
Let keep it moving
Hold the ranks
Don't let em get this don't let em
get to the banks
High salute high salute
