Текст песни Miami (David Rovics) с переводом

The leaders of the world had gathered

To make the planet freer for free trade

To create a better business climate

For all the profits they had made

Surrounded by an army

There for their defense

Armed with APC’s and 'copters

And lots of common sense

Behind a fence behind a wall

That shouts you shall not pass

Broken skulls, plastic bullets

And a thousand gallons of tear gas

And the world leaders kept on talking

Behind the mote upon the hill

And they boasted of prosperity

And their latest free trade bill

They thanked God, they thanked Boeing

They thanked the World Bank

They thanked the firepower

Of the M1 Tank

They defended their positions

And the glory of their class

With broken skulls…

On the streets we chanted

We have no clubs or guns

We’ve just come to tell the people

The evil ways this system runs

But the truth can set us free

The rulers all knew well

So they drowned the truth with 'copters

And the ringing of the bell

With their tasers on our bodies

And our faces in the grass

Broken skulls…

And the cameras hid behind the lines

Of half a million men in blue

When the rich men moved their lips

They recorded them on cue

The occupation of a city

By an army of police

Wasn’t worthy of a mention

From the reporters of the peace

Neither were the wounded children

Or the boarded glass

Or the broken bones…
