Fifteen man taken captive in a hostile foreign land
|
Scorchin' sun beaming down onto miles and miles of sand
|
A mideast country being ruled
|
By a man who thinks it's fun
|
To hold our people in return
|
For a sjah that's on the run
|
|
I think it's funny
|
Freedom takes money
|
|
It's a heartache and it's hard luck
|
Well that's tough shit
|
Man it's no fun
|
Storm the Iranian embassy
|
Before they start shootin' down you and me
|
|
Scourge of suits in control
|
Of the diplomaticness
|
While the nations of the world
|
Look on and they care less
|
The Soviet Union won't agree
|
To an economic plan
|
And then they laugh and march their troops into Afghanistan
|
|
Orders from Moscow
|
Invade Teheran now
|
|
It's a heartache and it's hard luck
|
Well that's tough shit
|
Man it's no fun
|
Storm the Iranian embassy
|
Before they start shootin' at you and me
|
|
A nation worries and reads the papers
|
Hoping that no-one has died
|
Hearin' rumours that the hostages
|
Will soon be tried as spies
|
Demonstrations on the street
|
Saying that the end is near
|
The man from New York Times on vacation
|
Wants to know what happened here
|
|
Agressive acts now
|
We want the best now
|
Fifteen moms crying
|
Is my son dying ?
|
|
It's a heartache and it's hard luck
|
Well that's tough shit
|
Man it's no fun
|
Storm the Iranian embassy
|
Before they start shootin' at you and me
|
