She was ony 18, had no one to lie to
About not going to school
So she packs up her bags
Heart in heart with her lover
They go out to protest
Passionate believers of a free, free world
Of a just, just world
So his parentes come down
Meet the bride to be
Visit the crowded bird cage

A couple o them aiready missing
A couple of them secretly hanging
A couple of them quietly bleeding
A couple of the neighbors screaming

Arrested in rio, protesting in rio
Young lady you can't graduate
You were too busy fighting for the future of your people
Young lady you are now to blame
Your sweet romeo was meant to become a doctor
