Lyrics:Oh, say do you remember 25 years ago,
They fought the fascist army, they fought the fascist
foe?
Do you remember Franco, Hitler's old ally?
He butchered Spain's democracy,half a
million free men died.

Ai, ai, ai, ai--
Did you wonder why?
Did you
ever pause and cry?

And don't forget the churches and the sad role that they
played:
They crucified their people and worked the devil's trade;
But now the wounds are
healing with the passing of time,
So we send them planes and rifles and recognize their
crime.

Ai, ai, ai, ai--
Did you wonder why?
Did you ever pause and
cry?

So spend your tourist dollars and turn your heads away.
Forget about the
slaughter, it's the price we all must pay,
For now the world's in struggle, to win we all must
bend:
So dim the light in Freedom's soul: sleep well tonight, my friend.

Ai, ai,
ai, ai--
Did you wonder why?
Did you ever pause and cry?
