They came across the border in the middle of the night It was much much worse in the cold daylight There's hundreds of tanks and thousands of men And helicopters buzzing right above your head
(chorus) Oh no, it's an invasion, invasion Oh no, it's an invasion, invasion
They're moving out of cities, they're moving out of towns If you're caught resisting you're quickly mown down Everybody's running, but they don't know where So long as they escape, well they just don't care
(chorus)
You can't understand, why they murder your land But you can't fight a tank with a stick And you want to fight back, but the future is black And the killing is making you sick The tanks pass by, in a never ending line Not a man or a woman is spared And then you wonder why, no help does arrive The world doesn't seem to care
You've formed a small resistance, you've got a few guns You plan a small ambush, but you end up on the run You're running through the foothills, but you'll never make yourcave You're just another rebel in an unmarked grave
