Beware of those who have nothing
Sing, sing, clever little bird
That climbs to the sky, glides and dives
Above kingdoms and republics
The clever bird watches and sees
The monarchs and their secrets
Who issue them inside state palaces
Orders and decrees
From their protected salons
Don't hear the singing bird
Don't hear the bird sing
Sensing it as a danger
Beware of those who have nothing
Who were left by the roadside
Dreamers dreaming a better world
They see anger rising in their hearts
Beware of those who have nothing
Sing, sing, clever little bird
That climbs to the sky, glides and dives
Above kingdoms and republics
The clever bird watches and sees
The financiers in their mysteries
Who play on plasma screens, lon la
The money so many people hope for
From their protected offices
Don't hear the singing bird
Don't hear the bird sing
Sensing it as a danger
Beware of those who have nothing
Who were left by the roadside
Dreamers dreaming a better world
They see anger rising in their hearts
Beware of those who have nothing
Sing, sing, clever little bird
That climbs to the sky, glides and dives
Above kingdoms and republics
The hands of those who have nothing
Dreamers dreaming a better world
They see anger rising in their hearts
Beware of those who have nothing
Sing, sing, clever little bird
That climbs to the sky, glides and dives
Above kingdoms and republics
