SACRED REICH - Surf Nicaragua

Surf Nicaragua EP (1988) “I know a place Where you’re all going to go They’ll pay you to kill If You’re eighteen years old First You’ll need a haircut And then some new clothes They’ll stick you in a jungle To play G.I. Joe CHORUS: You fight for democracy And the “American Way“ But you’re not in your country “What am I doing here?“ you say But now it’s too late You’re entering Managua If you had brought your surfboard You could surf Nicaragua What is this we’re fighting for What’s our ultimate goal To force our ideas Right down their throats American Intervention Grows Deeper Everyday The situation worsens More soldiers on the way CHORUS: You fight for democracy And the “American Way“ But you’re not in your country “What am I doing here?“ you say But now it’s too late You’re entering Managua If you had brought your surfboard You could surf Nicaragua Lessons we have learned Are easy to forget Hints of viet-nam How soon we all forget First we send advisors And then go the troops Another worthless conflict Another Chance to lose CHORUS: You fight for democracy And the “American Way“ But you’re not in your country “What am I doing here?“ you say But now it’s too late You’re entering Managua If you had brought your surfboard You could surf Nicaragua“
