It Can Be Done! - The Redskins

Russia sparked the fires in 1917

First workers revolution

The first workers revolution in history

Working people forced the bosses' backs against the wall

First steps taken for a better life for all

It’s a shame

It’s a crying shame

When our past is buried

And our victories go un-named

It’s a crying shame

When our history books

Talk of kings & men of fame

And in another country workers rose again

1919, 1919 in Berlin

But they didn’t learn the lessons

From the Russians that they should

Revolution, revolution was drowned in blood

It’s a crying shame

But the lessons plain

It’s a crying shame

But the lessons plain

All things are possible

Hunger of the 30's

Hunger of the 30's back again

And the rich still rich

And the poor still the same as they ever were

And it seems to me We’re still not learning from our history

And it’s a crying shame

Those who hold the future hold themselves in chains

It’s a crying shame

Those who bear the pain hold themselves to blame

It’s a crying, it’s a crying shame

It’s a crying shame

Look at Petrograd!

Look at Barcelona

Fight against the land

Fight against the land & the factory owners

Same fight today against another ruling class

Learn a lesson from your past

It’s a crying shame

But the lessons plain

It’s a crying shame

But the lessons plain

It can happen again

It’s a crying, crying, crying shame

But the lessons plain

It can be done again!
