Santo Domingo (圣多明各) (LP版) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)[00:00:00]

And the crabs are crazy [00:01:06]

They scuttle back and forth[00:01:09]

The sand is burning[00:01:11]

And the fish take flight[00:01:15]

And scatter from the sight[00:01:17]

Their courses turning[00:01:18]

As the seagulls rest[00:01:22]

On the cold cannon nest[00:01:24]

The sea is churning[00:01:26]

The marines have landed[00:01:29]

On the shores[00:01:31]

Of Santo Domingo[00:01:32]

The fishermen sweat [00:01:38]

They're pausing at their nets[00:01:40]

The day's a burning[00:01:42]

As the warships sway[00:01:45]

And thunder in the bay[00:01:47]

Loud the morning[00:01:49]

But the boy on the shore is[00:01:52]

Throwing pebbles no more[00:01:54]

He runs a warning[00:01:56]

That the the marines have landed[00:01:59]

On the shores[00:02:01]

Of Santo Domingo[00:02:02]

The streets are still [00:02:09]

There's silence in the hills[00:02:11]

The town is sleeping[00:02:12]

And the farmers yawn[00:02:15]

In the gray silver dawn[00:02:17]

The fields they're keeping[00:02:19]

As the first troops land[00:02:23]

And step into the sand[00:02:25]

The flags are weaving[00:02:26]

The marines have landed[00:02:29]

On the shores[00:02:31]

Of Santo Domingo[00:02:33]

The unsmiling sun[00:02:39]

Is shining down upon[00:02:40]

The singing soldiers[00:02:42]

In the cloud dust whirl[00:02:45]

They whistle at the girls[00:02:48]

They're getting bolder[00:02:49]

The old women sigh [00:02:54]

Think of memories gone by[00:02:56]

They shrug their shoulders[00:02:58]

The marines have[00:03:01]

Landed on the shores[00:03:02]

Of Santo Domingo[00:03:04]

Ready for the tricks [00:03:09]

Their bayonets are fixed[00:03:11]

Now they are rolling[00:03:13]

And the tanks make tracks[00:03:16]

Past the trembling shacks[00:03:18]

Where fear is unfolding[00:03:20]

All the young wives afraid [00:03:24]

Turn their backs on the parade[00:03:26]

With babes they're holding[00:03:28]

The marines have landed[00:03:31]

On the shores[00:03:33]

Of Santo Domingo[00:03:34]

A bullet cracks the sound [00:03:42]

The army hit the ground[00:03:44]

The sniper is calling[00:03:45]

So they open their guns [00:03:48]

A thousand to one[00:03:51]

No sense in stalling[00:03:52]

He clutches at his head[00:03:57]

And totters on the edge[00:03:59]

Look how he's falling[00:04:00]

The marines have landed[00:04:03]

On the shores[00:04:05]

Of Santo Domingo[00:04:07]

In the red plaza square [00:04:13]

The crowds come to stare[00:04:15]

The heat is leaning[00:04:16]

And the eyes of the dead[00:04:20]

Are turning every head[00:04:22]

To the widows screaming[00:04:23]

But the soldiers make a bid [00:04:28]

Giving candy to the kids[00:04:29]

Their teeth are gleaming[00:04:31]

The marines have landed[00:04:34]

On the shores[00:04:36]

Of Santo Domingo[00:04:38]

Up and down the coed [00:04:43]

The generals drink a toast[00:04:45]

The wheel is spinning[00:04:47]

And the cowards[00:04:50]

And the whores are peeking[00:04:51]

Through the doors to see[00:04:53]

Who's winning[00:04:54]

But the traitors will pretend[00:04:58]

That it's getting near the end[00:05:00]

When it's beginning[00:05:02]

The marines have landed[00:05:05]

On the shores[00:05:07]

Of Santo Domingo[00:05:08]

And the crabs are crazy [00:05:15]

They scuttle back and forth[00:05:19]

The sand is burning[00:05:21]

And the fish take flight[00:05:24]

And scatter from the sight[00:05:27]

Their courses turning[00:05:29]

As the seagulls rest[00:05:33]

On the cold cannon nest[00:05:35]

The sea is churning[00:05:37]

The marines have landed[00:05:40]

On the shores[00:05:42]

Of Santo Domingo[00:05:43]
