ALMA MARTYR:
The Unofficial Anthem
of the School of the Americas
(parody of "America" from West Side Story
Click to start music)

Intro:	Where can leaders get education?
	Not in peace but domination!
	Seeds of war always need sowing,
	Keeping the Revolution growing!

	And the money flowing
	To the gun suppliers!
	(Gotta fuel those fires!)
	Come out to Fort Benning, Georgia
	For lessons in war crimes and torture!

			HAIL THE SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS!
			!LA AULA DE TERROR Y DICTADOR!
			Wasting the moolah of taxpayer(s)
			On the School of the Americas!

		Learn 'ow to stockpile and chute guns!
		Go out and murder and rape nuns!
		Attack 'armless people like big beasts!
		Even assassinate poor priests!

			TAKE BACK THE SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS!
			HIJACK THE SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS!
			Change it to something more ethical,
			Train educators and peacemakers!

		What a great service to mankind!
		Killing off all of your own kind!
		No boys allowed in this all-"guerrilla" school!
		No bodies left for us to rule!

			HAIL THE SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS!
			!LA AULA DE TERROR Y DICTADOR!
			Costing the taxpayer millions,
			Turning the gun on civilians!
