Lyrics:

On silent feet it came
Breathing a sheet of flame, it came
Closing in on its rightful prey
Burning a hundred years away
The morning of the dragon
Truth lit up the street
The tiger we were stalking
Walked on paper feet
And in the clear white heat of dawn
Was gone

From every door they came (Victory)
These children born of war, they came (Victory)
Sharing a secret word which they (Victory)
Waited a hundred years to say (The morning of the dragon)
(All the walls fell down) Th? morning of the dragon
Truth lit up the street (Brother greet?d brother)
The tiger we were stalking walked on paper feet (In a sudden light)
(And the endless night) And in the clear white heat of dawn

Was gone

On silent feet it came (Victory)
Breathing a sheet of flame it came (Victory) (May all our children learn)
Closing in on its rightful prey (Victory) (The tide of right)
Burning a hundred years (Will turn)
Away (The morning of the dragon all)
The morning of the dragon (The walls fell down) (Giants)
Truth lit up the street (Brother greeted brother) (Fall, tigers)
The tiger we were stalking (In a) (Burn)
Walked on paper feet (Sudden light) (Someday)
(And the endless) (With the dawn) And in the clear
White heat of dawn (Night)
Was gone (Was gone) (They're gone)

Three years of school was nice
In rice fields planting rice
You did good work, you see
Reeducating me

Who lives a lie
Must change or die

Three years, how quick they moved
Look how the world's improved
Saigon, that queen of sin
Renamed for Ho Chi Minh

Who lives a lie
Must change or die

But men will always be men
They washed out my brain
I'm still what I am
Deep inside, I know what I know
Wherever I go
I speak Uncle Ho
And think Uncle Sam

Your name is Tran van Dinh?

At your service

You're called the Engineer

Yes, sir

The people's commissar

Am I free?

Has ordered you back here

Who lives a lie
Must change or die

We found the man that you wanted so bad

And Commissar, you were perfectly right

He had been taken up North to a camp

We brought him down under cover of night

Once he had served the American clique

Selling our sisters or daughters for gold

Notice we caught him in less that a week

When we get orders we do what we're told

All right! All right!
That's it, that's all
You've done your job, that's it
Now go back
I'll take over now

Kim

Find my cousin for me
I know she worked for you
You know who her friends were
One of them is the clue
Sniff her out, you know how
Think, now what would she do?

I never saw her again
I am a different man
I've been enlightened since then
But men must help other men
And seeing it's you
I'll work to the bone

I'll give you forty-eight hours
If you want to stay free
Don't come back here alone

On silent feet it came (Victory)
Breathing a sheet of flame it came (Victory) (May all our children learn)
Closing in on its rightful prey (Victory) (The tide of right)
Burning a hundred years away (Will turn)

The morning of the dragon
Truth lit up the street
The tiger we were stalking
Walked on paper feet
And in the clear white heat of dawn
Was gone
