Guerra Fria Ao Som de Eduardo e Mônica - Retrospectiva Histórica

Cold War to the Sound of Eduardo and Monica - Historical Retrospective
Cold War to learn
There's no complication
It's very easy, pay attention
We'll have to run
Because it's just a summary
Second World War had barely ended
A Cold War is what they did
Capitalism and Communism in the spotlight
War of Ideologies is what we had
American and Russian
One day they fought for power
And decided after that they wouldn't understand each other
Washington and Moscow started the nonsense
My ideology is cool and I want to destroy yours!
Strange and very weird war
Korea is in trouble, all divided
And the North invaded, without even talking
With Uncle Sam came military aid
And the poor people hiding in their homes
What madness, they want to kill us!
We have to talk about the space race
With the first satellite to orbit the Earth
The Americans dealt with the problem
By creating NASA to reach the Moon
There was a great insanity going on
Many more bombs threatening the whole world!
Suddenly a Russian goes to space to travel
In the race they came first
And with a Fidel Castro
Who was enraged
If there are missiles in Cuba, things will get really bad!
The Americans hated this idea
For them, Cuba had to speak English
In Europe, eastern and western broke
When a wall was raised in Germany
They divided the city of Berlin
A decision that separated many fathers and sons
The Space Race was intense
Apollo was a lot of work!
And Armstrong after much persistence
Became a hero for a generation
And the same on another continent
Soldiers very confident they would win in Vietnam
But the capitalists got beaten
Their country wasn't going to be theirs
American and Russian still in the fight
In space, it's war now, not exploration
And another war began
Soviets armed in Afghanistan (ah, ah, ah)
But it was expensive to keep so many spies
Communism didn't work out
And all that was left was to bring the wall down
