1968
Tell me who knew
What life was like back then
The world was on a mission to find freedom
And reject what the world imposed on them.
Abolish what oppressed...
Tell me who ignited
All that rebellion
Rousseau and Luther King, Sartre and Gagarin
What did I miss when I didn't exist?
Was it real or was it a lie?
Without fear, let's free our dreams
And let's go back to those times...
Tell me, did the
Prague Spring end in nothing?
Lennon, McCartney, Che, Janis Joplin
Ferre Twiggy, Hendrix, Dubcek
And thousands of students
Throwing stones in the streets.
Tell me about the long hair
And the Age of Aquarius
The hippies, a volcano
Opposed to Vietnam
Joan Baez, Yu Than
Those ideal dreams
Symbols of Flower Power.
Without fear, let's free our dreams
And let's reclaim those times.
And now everyone clapping
Like this... ta, ta, ta...
That spirit of yesterday is fading away
Decide if you don't want to be indifferent
Decide, decide, decide now.
See that there's no opportunity
Decide, decide, decide now
Look, there isn't, it's time to act.
