Lyrics
V1
10,000 heroes of Beijing, they tried to do the "freedom thing".
The heroes rocked, tanks, they rolled and that's when things went out of control.
Because the commies, dirty, rotten commies, freedom-hatin' commies.
Well, they don't want a party unless it's their own.
Come on Deng, what d' ya say? The winds of change are blowin' your way.
The song of freedom it must be sung, well, you better get it straight or you're name will be "Dung" again!
V2
10,000 heroes of Romania, too. They got fed up with Causescu!
A generation of pain and woe, and that's when things went out of control.
Because the people, the common, decent, ordinary people, you got to pay heed unto the people. Well, they don't want a life unless it's their own!
Come on Gorby, what d' ya say? The winds of change are blowin' your way.
It was just a matter of time before the walls came tumblin' down one more time - again!
V3
10,000 heroes of Kuwait. Saddam Hussein, he couldn't wait!
To get his hands on all that oil. And that's when things went out of control.
Because the power, he's just another power junkie. Power! Power to control the people. Power! And we don't like invasions, unless they're our own!
Come on Georgie, what d' ya say? The winds of change have blown you away! A New World Order, will it be won, yeah, with diplomacy forged through the barrel of a gun - again?
V4
10,000 victims of New York. The morning came, they went to work.
But terrorists were on a roll, and that's when things went out of control.
Because bin Laden, he's evil, and his soul is rotten! His crimes will never be forgotten! And we don't like terrorists unless they're our own!
Come on, America, what d' ya say? The winds of change are blowin' your way. The change will come, but what the cost? 'Cause freedom once won can be lost - again!
