Lyrics

Mad Tuesday

Radio Oranje has broadcast liberty
There are people dancing next to me
We're watching you retreat
Through our streets

How is it that you're still inside our home?
You are not allowing us to roam
Defectors will be caught
Perps are shot
I will not obey

(It's) Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday

I tell kids it is time to go to bed
We'll shut down the railways instead
Rumors are spreading well
Flea (run) like hell
We will not obey

(It's) Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday

Why is it that you take our friends away?
Parents and their families have no say
You order our support
No retorts
We will not obey

(It's) Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday
Mad Tuesday

(It's) Mad Tuesday
(It's) Mad Tuesday
