Vanguard - David Rovics

[00:00.000] 作曲 : David Rovics
[00:32.902]If you are offended by this song it is probably about you.
[00:41.418]Worker's World says that they have all the answers
[00:44.918]And Milosevic is a guy that they admire
[00:48.680]The ISO says Trotsky is the man
[00:51.867]And they'll debate it until they all expire
[00:55.707]The industrial workers will lead the revolution
[00:59.233]So says the SWP
[01:02.342]No, the truth lies among the lumpen
[01:06.443]That's the RCP
[01:09.839]The Sparts say the rest can go to hell
[01:13.313]And everyone else is a Stalinist
[01:16.422]The CP will just do their thing
[01:19.452]And pretend the others don't exist
[01:23.449]Well I had a realization this morning
[01:26.400]When I looked into the red and dawning sun
[01:29.744]I've figured out the truth
[01:33.166]And I'm forming a party of one
[01:37.189]'Cause I am the leader of the workers
[01:40.298]And I'll tell you why the Left is suspect
[01:43.667]Because there's something you don't understand
[01:47.351]Only my line is correct
[01:50.956]Yeah I am the vanguard of the masses
[01:54.613]And all of you should just follow me
[01:58.035]And if you doubt my analysis
[02:01.404]You must be in the petty bourgeoisie
[02:06.524]But I am not sectarian
[02:09.320]It's all the rest who are
[02:12.507]I work fine in coalitions
[02:16.399]As long as I'm the shining star
[02:19.037]So bow down to your new master
[02:22.642]The lastest V.I. Lenin
[02:25.933]And off to the camps to all of you
[02:28.885]Who'd say, \"not this again\"
[02:32.725]'Cause I am the leader of the workers
[02:35.938]And I'll tell you why the Left is suspect
[02:39.439]Because there's something you don't understand
[02:42.861]Only my line is correct
[02:46.361]Yeah I am the vanguard of the masses
[02:50.097]And all of you should just follow me
[02:53.649]And if you doubt my analysis
[02:57.019]You must be in the petty bourgeoisie
[03:01.408]And I'll have no music at my protests
[03:04.830]And none of that goddamn puppetry
[03:07.573]I'll just have some somber slogans
[03:10.760]No decadent frivolity
[03:14.573]My chants will be the right ones
[03:17.499]Just the ones that should be said
[03:20.686]And my banners we'll wave proudly
[03:24.265]Just the proper shade of red
[03:28.131]And I will build the party if it kills me
[03:31.161]I am solely dedicated to the cause
[03:34.557]If I have to stab you in the back
[03:38.554]This won't give me pause
[03:42.472]'Cause my platform will take us forward
[03:45.215]And the ends always justify the means
[03:48.062]And you must step aside behind me
[03:51.406]Be you Quakers, Jews, anarchists or greens
[03:54.567]'Cause I am the leader of the workers
[03:58.146]And I'll tell you why the Left is suspect
[04:01.489]Because there's something you don't understand
[04:04.911]Only my line is correct
[04:08.516]Yeah I am the vanguard of the masses
[04:11.834]And all of you should just follow me
[04:15.256]And if you doubt my analysis
[04:18.547]You must be in the petty bourgeoisie
