lyrics

You’re sick in Central America, it’s a tummy-ache.
Got the flu in El Salvador, national interests are at stake.
Whatya do when the wife and kids have been hustled off to jail
Your lifeless head is rolling in the dust, how do you tell the tale?

You’re sick in Central America, it’s the bug again.
Diarrhea in Nicaragua, the commies must be at it again.
Colon cancer begins in the brain and works it’s way south.
The propaganda looks so appealing as it’s dripping from your mouth.
Call Dr. Henry and Mr. Dick for some quick advice you’re not feeling all right,

‘Cause your sick in Latin America, and it’s getting worse,
Your skin is peeling from the after effects of a napalm burst.
Feeling the weight of a debt unpaid and you sure would like to eat.
Who’s in charge, who’s in control, which of you is the beast?

You’re sick in Central America, it’s no tummy-ache.
Got the flu in El Salvador, national interests are at stake.
You’re sick, you’re in pain and there’s no end in sight.
Presidential constipation keeps you awake at night.
Who’s in control, who’s in charge, why are the killers still at large?
