XTC - Living Through Another Cuba [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Living through another Cuba
It's 1961 again and
We are piggy in the middle

Living through another Cuba
While war is polishing his drum
And peace plays second fiddle

Living through another Cuba
Russia and America are at each other's throats
But don't you cry

Living through another Cuba
Just on your knees and pray
And while you're down there, kiss your arse goodbye

Living through another Cuba
We're the bulldog on the fence
While others play their tennis overhead

Living through another Cuba
It's hardly love all and
Somebody might wind up red or dead

Living through another Cuba
Pour some oil on the water quick
It doesn't really matter where from

Living through another Cuba
He love me, he loves me not
He's pulling fins from an atom bomb

Living through another Cuba
This phenomenon happens
Every 20 years or so

Living through another Cuba
If they're not careful your watch won't be
The only thing with a radioactive glow

Living through another Cuba
I'll stick my fingers in my ears and
Hope they make it up before too late

Living through another Cuba
If we get through this lot alright
They're due for replay, 1998
