Текст песни The Pirate Radio Song (David Rovics) с переводом

This is how it started

It’s not hard to understand

From coast-to-coast they’re lying

At a CEO’s command

From Nationalist Public Radio

To C.N.N. and N.B.C

Big Brother spewing misinformation

From the dis-information ministry

They say the economy is booming

We hear the homeless beggars cry

They say we help poor countries

We see bombs falling from the sky

Reality doesn’t exist

They’re trying to say

But some of us decided

There is another way

Seize the airways!

Seize the time!

'Cause lying to the people

Is the real crime

When it’s all owned by corporations

And theirs is the only word

We will seize the airwaves

Speak freely, and be heard

Someone got a transmitter

Started up a station

Then the idea spread

Right across the nation

Like the land and water

The air must be free

So let us shout together

«FUCK THE F.C.C.»

And we’ll do it all together

In a grassroots-style

Tearing down the fences

Through-out this whole square mile

It’s the new town meeting

It’s the way the news should be

The rulers call it chaos

We say it’s democracy

So when you turn on the radio

And you’ve had it with this shit

From 88 to 107

Makes you want to have a fit

When you listen to the music

And it’s all the same pop songs

Start up a pirate station

Because that’s where you belong
