International - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

The youth and the Imperialist Tribune was also addressed by a young girl

from Nicaragua whose hands had been cut off at the wrists by the former

Samosa guards.

Veronika Merko, of the German Federal Republic, had this to say:

«Also, ich habe eine Ausbildung gemacht als Industriekaufmann und wurde nach

der Lehre nicht uebernommen.»

«Well, I had finished my training as an industiral clerk but was not taken up.»

Now and then

A little thing gets by

Now and then

we’ll cry

Like a fall in a war

Like a mother’s open arms

Like a pawn in a game

Hard to take

There we sit in a line

Wasting fortunes at a time

And pray

All the time we are gone

There’s no reason

There’s no way

Oh the sound is the one

So they say

There we sit on a line

Wasting fortunes at a time

And play

She never thought

He’d be this way

Her arms aloft

She holds

But now it’s all a memory

And it’s gone
