Video Please Forgive Us - Videos Musicales Gratis
"Mercy
mercy," why didn t we hear it? "Mercy
mercy," why did we read it buried on the last page of our morning papers? The plan was drafted
drafted in secret.
Gunboats met the red tide
driven to the rum trade for the army that they created.
But the bullets were bought by us
it was dollars that paid them.
Please forgive us
we don t know what was done in our name.
There ll be more trials like this in mercenary heydays.
When they re so apt to wrap themselves up in the stripes and stars and find that they are able to call themselves heroes and to justify murder by their fighters for freedom.
Please forgive us
we don t know what was done.
Please forgive us
we didn t know.
Could you ever forgive us? I don t know how you could.
I know this is no consolation.
Please forgive us
we didn t know.
Could you ever believe that we didn t know? Please forgive us
we didn t know.
I wouldn t blame you if you never could
and you never will.
