3. Russians by Sting – a song from the Cold War- 1980’s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K8u_iI68Z8 In Europe and America there's a growing feeling of hysteria.Conditioned to respond to all the threats In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets.Mister Krushchev said, "We will bury you."I don't subscribe to this point of view. It'd be such an ignorant thing to do If the Russians love their children too.How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?There is no monopoly on common sense On either side of the political fence.We share the same biology, regardless of ideology.Believe me when I say to you,I hope the Russians love their children tooThere is no historical precedent To put the words in the mouth of the president?There's no such thing as a winnable war, It's a lie we don't believe anymore.Mister Reagan says, "We will protect you."I don't subscribe to this point of view.Believe me when I say to you,I hope the Russians love their children tooWe share the same biology, regardless of ideology.But what might save us, me and you, Is if the Russians love their children too
