lyrics

painted figures, on the wall
20 children, 4 feet tall
in ringolevio, we'll catch them all
put them in a cage
before there friends try, to rescue them
... and set them free again

broken windows, in leaning towers
...and policemen, who shoot citizens
are like presidents, of nation states
who teach kids, how laws are made
.. red white and blue, fluters in the wind
on rainy days ..on rainy days

songs of Portugal, on the radio
20 kids play, ringolevio
in the street, outside my window
and painted stallions run, in the sunshine
but when friends try, to rescue them
20 children sing, songs of freedom
