Sankara

hey...oh la la la la
Sankara
Thomas Sankara
Captain Sankara
It's your baramogo who got you
bad bad got you
Sankara
Thomas Sankara
It's your baramogo who got you
A coup d'état calls for other coups d'état
And brothers in arms sooner or later become enemies
And I already told you that
Power is taken by the ballot box and by weapons
Sankara
Thomas Sankara
Captain Sankara it's your baramogo who got you
bad bad got you
Betrayal always calls for other betrayals
There's no season
And I'm right
Power is taken by the ballot box (and I already told you that)
And not by weapons (and not by weapons)
(Dirty laundry is washed in the family but not in blood)
hey oh la la la la
From revenge to revenge Africa has fallen into disgrace
Wanting to avenge Sankara
Is perpetuating stupidity
Political stupidity
Anti-democratic
Thirst for power
It's the power's bulimia
It's the power's greed
(Dirty laundry is washed in the family but not in blood) repeat
repeat
Sankara
Thomas Sankara
oh la la la la
