Myanmar (Burma)

History repeating itself, or prophecy from an 80's & 90's Australian rock band?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will the sons of Solidarity, Still march on May Day?
Will the sisters of the seventies, Still fight for equal pay?
There's no-one on the Reeperbahn, No more blankets handed out for land.
We feed an economy, It's got blood on it's hands!
-
Mountains of Burma! The road to Mandalay...
Mountains of Burma! Light years away...
In the mountains of Burma! The road to Mandalay...
In the mountains of Burma! Hope you're light years away...
-
Pack your (pack your) bags full of guns and ammunition...
Bills fall (bills fall) due for the industrial revolution...
Scorch the (scorch the) earth till the earth surrenders.
-
Soldiers of armies, Storm empty fields,
In a traveller's trance, On the way to the high frontier,
Sleepwalkers stumble! Cable cars run aground!
Imaginary enemies, Form high above the clouds!
-
In the Mountains of Burma...
