Verse
B E F#
Come listen young comrades, a hist'ry we'll tell
G#m B E B
Of the glorious struggle to build CPC (ML)
B E F#
Oh it is the story of how a class continues
G#m B E B
To fight battle after battle to smash the old and build the new
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 2]
B E F#
In the early 60's against increasing exploitation
G#m B E B

Despite revisionist betrayal of this massive upsurge
G#m B E B
C# new quality in small quantity from the movement emerged.
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 3]
B E F#
They said "Don't turn off the people by making a scene,
G#m B E B
Or you'll isolate the left from the mainstream."
B E F#
But we boldly shouted, "Down with imperialism,
G#m B E B
Down with the lackeysm, down with revisionism!"
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 4]
B E F#
There were still lots of questions, but we never shied
G#m B E B
For we had Marxism-Leninism, an invincible guide
B E F#
The trend of unity of Marxist-Leninists irresistably spread
G#m B E B
And defending Marxism we marched ahead.
[Chorus]

And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance

[Verse 5]
B E F#
Liberal leaders housed Marxists in petit-bourgeois plans
G#m B E B
They all did their best to upset our plans
B E F#
But they could not stop us, nor could the state attacks
G#m B E B
Nor the jailing of comrades who dared to fight back.
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 6]
B E F#
Driven into a frenzy, the state sent agent provocateurs
G#m B E B
Into our ranks thinking to stop us for sure
B E F#
But their hope for easy vic'try was just a pipe dream
G#m B E B
As we smashed the opportunists and exposed their schemes.
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 7]
B E F#
The so-called Marxist-Leninists demanded dogma that's pure
G#m B E B
But all they could show us was a gross caricature
B E F#
"Safeguard our independence," the opportunists did say,
G#m B E B
But the working class sent it back, "Make the rich pay!"
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 8]
B E F#
They unfurled their yellow banner called 'Mao Tse-Tung Thought',
G#m B E B
And we firmly shouted that we had begot
B E F#
Whenever loyal to Marxism we stood our ground
G#m B E B
The three plenum of our Party brought Mao Tse-Tung Thought down.
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 9]
B E F#
The road has been long but we've learned from our class
G#m B E B
The proletarian revolution is a practical task
B E F#
Here is our banner, and here is our task:
G#m B E B
Defend the Marxist-Leninist Party as the vanguard of the class!
[Chorus]
F# E B
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
F# E B
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
B E F#
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
G#m B E B
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
