All the President's Soldiers - Live
Javiér's the man
They put the whole damn country in his hands
He rules with an iron fist
But at least he ain't no filthy communist
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
After the coup
The CIA didn't know just what to do
Javiér stepped in
The next charade was waiting to begin
And all the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
As he climbs the stairs to his royal bed
His armored guard kisses him goodnight
Dreams of conquest dance in his greedy head
But his hour will come when the time is right
I don't believe what I read in the papers
I don't believe what I hear on the news
I don't believe what I see on the TV
I don't believe no record reviews
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
They put the whole damn country in his hands
He rules with an iron fist
But at least he ain't no filthy communist
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
After the coup
The CIA didn't know just what to do
Javiér stepped in
The next charade was waiting to begin
And all the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
As he climbs the stairs to his royal bed
His armored guard kisses him goodnight
Dreams of conquest dance in his greedy head
But his hour will come when the time is right
I don't believe what I read in the papers
I don't believe what I hear on the news
I don't believe what I see on the TV
I don't believe no record reviews
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
Couldn't quench the coals as they smoldered
Couldn't put the world together again
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
All the president's soldiers
And all the president's men
