The Ballad Of Hugo Chavez Lyrics


Arkells The Ballad Of Hugo Chavez


Hey hey hey (2x)

It was a bad idea
To give me this kind of time
When they said, "You're gonna be
In solitary confinement."

While the other inmates
Are outside lifting bar bells
I'm in an 8x10, prison cell.

But in the night of the sun
Hey hey hey
Night of the sun
Hey hey hey
The night of the sun
Hey hey hey
Night of the sun

New state officials
Are outside running around.
They're telling the public
That I need to be put down.

And Washington's saying, emphatically
That I wasn't doing things, democratically

But in the night of the sun
Hey hey hey
Night of the sun
Hey hey hey
The night of the sun
Hey hey hey
Night of the sun
The sun!

It was a bad idea
(it was a bad idea)
To give me this kind of time
(to give me this kind of time)
It was a bad idea
