Rumanian dictator, emperor for life

Lived a life of luxury shared only by

his wife

Growing fat like pigs, eating meals fit

for a king

Accumulating assets like none you've

ever seen

Now the table's turned, they were stripped

of all they owned

The revolution's cast the dictator from

the throne

With their execution, so ends the tyranny

Two bullets from a rifle set the people free



Fighting for their rights

They toppled the regime

Pillage all their riches

Left them not a thing

Now they know the feeling

To reap the seeds they've sewn

Banished from the living

When they were overthrown

How did they feed the enormous greed

It took to satisfy their needs?

They drained the country dry

As thousands had to die

But now the monarchy is nullfied!



Chorus

The changing of the guard

They no longer deal the cards

The world demands democracy

It's the dawning of a time

When the system's redefined

Oppression's now a distant memory

Communism yields to the might the

people wield

For a democratic form of government

For their blatant disregard

They have suffered long and hard

It's time for a changing of the guard!



No longer will they rule the land

by genocide

The traces of their empire have all

been liquefied

Political reform has gotten underway

Now they're free to speak, before they'd

only pray

Freedom is contagious, it's spreading

far and wide

The Berlin Wall has fallen, there's no need

to divide

They walk across a border where many

tried and failed

Others died but not in vain, the people

have prevailed.



Fighting for their rights

They toppled the regime

Pillaged all their riches

Left them not o thing

Now they know the feeling

To reap the seeds they've sewn

Banished from the living

When they were overthrown

How did they feed the enormous greed

It took to satisfy their needs?

They drained the country dry

As thousands had to die

But now the monarchy is nullified!



Repeat Chorus
