Oi Polloi - Hands Off Nicaragua lyrics

Nicaragua once suffered under a fascist regime,

but the people brought it down 'cos they had a dream

A dream that they could live in freedom from fear

But then the U.S.-Government had to interfere!

Americans out, Americans out!

Hear the people scream, hear the people shout

Americans out, Americans out!

We've got to fight the US interference with Nicaragua

U.S.-backed contras, right wing murdering scum

Fight to stop the country falling under their thumb!

They've tortured civilians, even murdered nuns

And they do it with American money and guns

Americans out, Americans out!

Hear the people scream, hear the people shout

Americans out, Americans out!

We've got to fight the US interference with Nicaragua

CIA murderers maim and kill

I think Reagan must be mentally ill

A dangerous nutter crazed with power

He's dragging us all nearer to our final hour

Americans out, Americans out!

Hear the people scream, hear the people shout

Americans out, Americans out!

We've got to fight the US interference with Nicaragua
