At the beginning of the story
there was a burglary in South Braintree
Later police arrest Sacco and Vanzetti
based on no proof except their militancy
2 Italian anarchists living in USA
who were supporting strikes and distributing tracts
sentenced to death in a partial trial
condemned because of their ideas it's a fact

Here's to you, Nicola and Bart
Rest forever here in our hearts
The last and final moment is yours
That agony is your triumph

Nowadays anarchists are still oppressed
in many countries they are still aggressed
States fear our slogan "no god no master"
we send strength to our comrades locked in Russia
All over the world and history
Leaders have kept on persecuting anarchy
Here's to you Bart and Nicola
We'll keep up the fight and destroy the power

Here's to you, Nicola and Bart
Rest forever here in our hearts
The last and final moment is yours
That agony is your triumph

Quand votre nom, vos lois, vos institutions ne seront plus qu'un souvenir d'un passé lointain,
maudit ! Le nom de Nicola Sacco sera toujours dans le cœur des hommes*

Here’s a little story
We got to tell
About two bad brothers
You aint know so well
It started way back in
History
With my mans Sacco and
Vanzetti
Fish peddler
Shoe maker
Radical working class
We’ve been saying their names
For a hundred years
Ya know that shit aint passed
Tears aint dried
Live with the same fate
You can be
Framed up
Stitched up
Tried
Killed by the state
Killed by the state
We kept their story alive
Cause we
Feel it
Real time
Feel me
When that power tells
Us what is truth
And media push a fever
Anti immigrant
Be scared of the stranger

Red scare red scare
Played that part
Nicola and bart

Red scare red scare
Played that part
Nicola and bart

Prosecuted for their beliefs
‘Anarchist bastards’
The judge screams
Came to live
That dream
Shocked at the terror
They seen

Still like this
I can’t breath (1)
Garner Killed in the street
Pushed out window Pinelli (2)
Bomb in the car
Bari (3)
They still talk all that
Moralist chat
But that justice system
School to prison
Entrap and criminalised
When you fight back
And organise
You can go missing
Disappear
Fake suicide
Beware
When they
Set that tone
And you treated
Like a roach
Corporate owner
Came in with the choke 1
They’ll kill many more
They punish the poor
Just a reminder
Who we’re working for
If they could
Kill me twice
They would
If i could
Be born twice
I would
Steady
Live again to do
What I’ve done
Already

(1) Eric Garner a été tué par des policiers en 2014. Subissant une technique d'étranglement, il déclara
à plusieurs reprises "I can't breathe" ("Je ne peux pas respirer"), phrase qui sera régulièrement
reprise dans les manifestations qui suivront sa mort
(2) Giuseppe Pinelli était un cheminot anarchiste italien qui a très probablement été défenestré par
des policiers suite à son arrestation en 1969
(3) Judi Bari était une militante anarchiste, féministe, syndicaliste et écologiste proche des IWW
