be presidents are all around [00:10.64] [00:11.16]I don't say they mean harm [00:12.66] [00:13.30]But they'd each give an arm [00:15.24] [00:16.33]To see us six feet underground [00:17.96] [00:21.64]It doesn't matter what those morons say [00:23.78] [00:25.31]Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew [00:27.72] [00:29.23]There's only twenty of them anyway [00:31.08] [00:33.31]What is twenty next to millions who [00:35.64] [00:36.48]Are looking to you [00:37.34] [00:41.36]All you have to do is sit and wait [00:43.46] [00:45.18]Keeping out of everybody's way [00:46.94] [00:49.01]We'll you'll be handed power on a plate [00:53.80] [00:55.60]When the ones who matter have their say [00:57.58] [00:58.39]And with chaos installed [00:59.66] [01:03.10]You can reluctantly agree to be called [01:05.57] [01:08.22]There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead [01:13.09] [01:14.81]For distance lends enchantment and that is why [01:18.62] [01:20.47]All exiles are distinguished more important they're not dead [01:25.52] [01:26.20]I could find job satisfaction in Paraguay [01:29.87] [01:31.25]This is crazy defeatist talk [01:33.38] [01:33.95]Why commit political suicide there's no risk [01:36.88]There's no call for any action at all [01:38.98] [01:40.34]When you have unions on your side [01:42.31] [01:43.80]Peron Peron [01:44.93] [01:51.46]A new Argentina the chains of the masses untied [01:57.47] [01:59.58]A new Argentina the voice of the people [02:03.86] [02:05.11]Cannot be denied [02:07.09] [02:10.43]There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime [02:13.27] [02:15.94]He lives for your problems he shares your ideals and your dream [02:19.31] [02:21.24]He supports you for he loves you [02:24.01]Understands you is one of you [02:26.14] [02:26.97]If not how could he love me [02:29.83] [02:32.39]A new Argentina the workers' battle song [02:37.86] [02:40.62]A new Argentina the voice of the people [02:45.29] [02:46.06]Rings out loud and long [02:49.05] [02:51.50]Now I am a worker I've suffered the way that you do [02:54.67] [02:57.00]I've been unemployed and I've starved and I've hated it too [03:00.32] [03:02.47]But I found my salvation in Peron may the nation [03:07.24] [03:08.14]Let him save them as he saved me [03:11.27] [03:13.54]A new Argentina a new age about to begin [03:19.04] [03:21.90]A new Argentina we face the world together [03:25.94] [03:27.30]And no dissent within [03:29.58] [03:32.67]Nationalization of the industries that the foreigners control [03:37.34] [03:37.98]Participation in the profits

bigger slice of every cake [03:53.17] [03:54.68]How annoying that we have to fight elections for their cause [03:59.56] [04:00.18]The inconvenience having to get a majority [04:03.69] [04:06.17]If normal methods of persuasion fail to win us applause [04:10.11] [04:11.59]There are other ways of establishing authority [04:14.23] [04:17.01]We have ways of making you vote for us [04:19.44]Or at least of making you abstain [04:21.27] [04:24.22]Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow [04:26.75] [04:29.31]The descamisados are those he is marching with now [04:32.63] [04:34.82]He

[05:25.51] [05:26.50]Taking breakfast in bed [05:28.14] [05:29.27]Sleeping easy doing crosswords [05:31.83] [05:32.57]It's attractive [05:33.18] [05:35.27]Don't think I don't think like you I often get those nightmares too [05:39.35]They always take some swallowing [05:40.90] [05:41.83]Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum if [05:45.03]It's you that you are following [05:46.66] [05:47.69]Don't close doors [05:48.73] [05:49.36]Keep an escape clause [05:50.70]Because we might lose [05:52.01] [05:52.78]The big apple [05:53.76] [05:56.90]But would I have done what I did [05:59.33] [06:00.43]If I hadn't thought if I hadn't known [06:03.13] [06:04.60]We would take the country [06:06.15] [06:12.46]A new Argentina [06:13.48] [06:15.00]The chains of the masses untied
