Lyrics:
This song is a literal description of the events of the Carandiru massacre of October 2, 1992, in which 111 prisoners were killed by Sao Paulo police following a prison riot. Friday, October second, 1992
Chaos has descended in 'Carandiru' The biggest penitentiary complex in South America Over a hundred inmates dead and hundreds injured on the massacre The police arrived with helicopters And over two hundred armed forces
They took the jailblock called 'Pavilhão Nove' And opened fire on the inmates In a holocaust method of annihilation The government of the city of São Paulo Cannot control the brutality of its police
Holocaust, body piles Confrontation, mutilation
Discipline, ignorance Conflagration, torture
Over eighty percent of the inmates were not sentenced yet The bodies were filled with bullets And bites from the police dogs The police tried to hide the massacre Saying there were only eight deaths
The violence of Brazilian cops Is very well known outside Brazil This kind of extermination is a method that they use To get rid of the overpopulation in the jails The violence of the cops Left the whole pavillion destroyed after the rebellion
'Pavilhão Nove'
