Verse
D# G# A#
Come listen young comrades, a hist'ry we'll tell
Cm D# G# D#
Of the glorious struggle to build CPC (ML)
D# G# A#
Oh it is the story of how a class continues
Cm D# G# D#
To fight battle after battle to smash the old and build the new
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 2]
D# G# A#
In the early 60's against increasing exploitation
Cm D# G# D#
The people rose up to change the situation
D# G# A#
Despite revisionist betrayal of this massive upsurge
Cm D# G# D#
F new quality in small quantity from the movement emerged.
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 3]
D# G# A#
They said "Don't turn off the people by making a scene,
Cm D# G# D#
Or you'll isolate the left from the mainstream."
D# G# A#
But we boldly shouted, "Down with imperialism,
Cm D# G# D#
Down with the lackeysm, down with revisionism!"
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 4]
D# G# A#
There were still lots of questions, but we never shied
Cm D# G# D#
For we had Marxism-Leninism, an invincible guide
D# G# A#
The trend of unity of Marxist-Leninists irresistably spread
Cm D# G# D#
And defending Marxism we marched ahead.
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 5]
D# G# A#
Liberal leaders housed Marxists in petit-bourgeois plans
Cm D# G# D#
They all did their best to upset our plans
D# G# A#
But they could not stop us, nor could the state attacks
Cm D# G# D#
Nor the jailing of comrades who dared to fight back.
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 6]
D# G# A#
Driven into a frenzy, the state sent agent provocateurs
Cm D# G# D#
Into our ranks thinking to stop us for sure
D# G# A#
But their hope for easy vic'try was just a pipe dream
Cm D# G# D#
As we smashed the opportunists and exposed their schemes.
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 7]
D# G# A#
The so-called Marxist-Leninists demanded dogma that's pure
Cm D# G# D#
But all they could show us was a gross caricature
D# G# A#
"Safeguard our independence," the opportunists did say,
Cm D# G# D#
But the working class sent it back, "Make the rich pay!"
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 8]
D# G# A#
They unfurled their yellow banner called 'Mao Tse-Tung Thought',
Cm D# G# D#
And we firmly shouted that we had begot
D# G# A#
Whenever loyal to Marxism we stood our ground
Cm D# G# D#
The three plenum of our Party brought Mao Tse-Tung Thought down.
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 9]
D# G# A#
The road has been long but we've learned from our class
Cm D# G# D#
The proletarian revolution is a practical task
D# G# A#
Here is our banner, and here is our task:
Cm D# G# D#
Defend the Marxist-Leninist Party as the vanguard of the class!
[Chorus]
A# G# D#
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A# G# D#
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D# G# A#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Cm D# G# D#
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
