wanted Dead Or Alive Lyrics

    The rule of the tyrants decline
    The year, 1979
    From uganda to nicaragua
    It's bombs and bullets all the time
    So they corrupt, so they vile
    So it's coup after coup all the while
    Human rights they violate
    They think they too damn great
    So in disgrace now they live in exile

    Gairy is a wanted man
    Idi amin is a wanted man
    Shah of iran tried so hard to survive
    He too was wanted dead or alive

    Strikes, demonstrations & wars
    Injustice is always the cause
    Politicians turn too soon from
    Poor people into tycoons
    Corruption must bring harass
    South african vorster resign in disgrace
    Muzurewa take away ian smith place
    The uganda devil was easily cat straddled
    Beaten up and chased, what a waste.

    Gairy is a wanted man
    Bokassa is a wanted man
    Ali bhutto try so hard to survive
    He too was wanted dead or alive.

    The shah had a short time to live
    Because the ayatollah don't forgive
    When you see church ruling state
    With pure vengeance and hate
    Situation must be explosive
    General somoza from nicaragua
    Thought it was easy with the sandanistas
    With the help of venezuela, panama and cuba
    They kick him straight to america

    Gairy is a wanted man
    Park chung hee was a wanted man
    Achem pong tried so hard to survive
    He too was wanted dead or alive

    Gairy is a wanted man
    Idi amin is a wanted man
    Shah of iran tried so hard to survive
    He too was wanted dead or alive

    Bang...you're dead
