Versuri John Adams – I am the wife of Mao Tse-tung lyrics

I am the wife of Mao Tse-tung
Who raised the weak above the strong
When I appear the people hang
When I appear the people hang upon my words1
And for his sake
Whose wreaths are heavy ’round my neck
I speak according to the book!

When did the Chinese people
Last expose its daughters?

At the breast of history
I sucked and pissed
Thoughtless and heartless
Red and blind
I cut my teeth upon the land
And I walked
My feet were bound on revolution

Let me be
A grain of sand
A grain of sand
In Heaven’s eye
And I shall taste eternal joy

Let me be
A grain of sand
And I shall taste eternal joy

Let me be
A grain of sand
A grain of sand
In Heaven’s eye
And I shall taste eternal joy

I am the wife of Mao Tse-tung
Who raised the weak above the strong
When I appear the people hang
When I appear the people hang upon my words
And for his sake
Whose wreaths are heavy ’round my neck
I speak according to the book!
The book!

I speak according to the book!
The book!
