Talking Cuban Crisis (LP版) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)[00:00:00]

It was just a little while ago[00:00:08]

I glued my ears to the radio[00:00:10]

The announcer was saying wed better beware[00:00:13]

A crisis was hanging a wave from the air[00:00:15]

Crawling on the ground[00:00:19]

Swimming in the sea[00:00:20]

Heading for me[00:00:22]

Well I didn't know if I was for or again it[00:00:26]

He was yelling and screaming a mile a minute[00:00:28]

Well he said here comes the president[00:00:31]

But first this word from pepsodent[00:00:33]

Have whiter teeth[00:00:39]

Have cleaner breath[00:00:41]

When you're facing nuclear death[00:00:42]

And then president john began to speak[00:00:48]

And I knew right away he wouldn't be weak[00:00:50]

Well he said hed seen some missile bases[00:00:52]

And terrible smiles on cuban faces[00:00:54]

Close pictures[00:00:57]

Carrying land reform too far[00:00:59]

Giving land to the ussr[00:01:02]

Well he said we mustn't be afraid[00:01:07]

Were setting up a little blockade[00:01:09]

Put our ships along the cuban shores[00:01:12]

And if the russian bear yells and roars [00:01:15]

Well let him have it[00:01:16]

From turkey and greece formosa and spain[00:01:21]

The peaceful west european plaing[00:01:23]

From alaska and greenland well use our means[00:01:25]

And twenty thousand submarines[00:01:28]

Were gonna teach the russians a lesson[00:01:31]

For trying to upset the balance of power[00:01:34]

Now most americans stood behind[00:01:40]

The president and his military minds[00:01:42]

But me I stood behind a bar[00:01:45]

Dreaming of a spaceship getaway car[00:01:47]

Head for mars[00:01:50]

Any other planet that has bars[00:01:53]

Like gerdes folk city[00:01:55]

Yes it seemed the presidents stand was strong and plain[00:01:58]

But some republicans was a going insane[00:02:00]

And they still are[00:02:03]

They said our plan was just too mild[00:02:04]

Spare the rod and spoil the child[00:02:07]

Let's sink cuba into the sea[00:02:10]

And give them back democracy[00:02:13]

Under the water[00:02:15]

Well the deadline was set for ten o'clock[00:02:19]

For a cold war it was a getting hot[00:02:21]

Well the russians tried the russians failed[00:02:24]

Homeward bound those missiles sailed[00:02:26]

Mr khruschev said better red than dead[00:02:30]
