Manic Street Preachers - Baby Elian video free download

When I first saw that The Manics had written a song about Elian Gonzalez I thought it was a bit... pretentious to be honest. But then I actually heard the song and that shut me up. Hope you enjoy it as well!

These are the lyrics:

Blockades won't win you more votes

A Cuban adjustment act

Offer the world a dream

Dress it up - it's blackmail

Internal matter they say

For 2 million dollars a day

Maybe a future in film

But Cuban boxers still win

Kidnapped to the promised land

The bay of pigs

Or baby Elian

Operation Peter Pan

America - the devils playground

Across the unfair divide

Where black will never meet white

So read my token lips

As if they never exist

You cannot buy a nation

Not even Miami mob

We follow a shining path

That you will never destroy

Kidnapped to the promised land

The bay of pigs

Or baby Elian

Operation Peter Pan

America - the devils playground

You don't just sit in a rocking chair

When you've build a revolution

You don't just sit in a rocking chair

When you've build a revolution

Baby Elian

Baby Elian
