Lyrics
The rule of the tyrants decline
The year 1979
From Uganda to Nicaragua
It's bombs and bullets all the time
So they corrupt, so they vile
So it's coup after coup all the while
Human rights they violate
They thought they were too great
So in disgrace now they live in exile
Gary is a wanted man
Idi Amin is a wanted man
Shah of Iran fighting hard to survive
He too is wanted dead or alive
Strikes, demonstrations and wars
Injustice is always the cause
Politicians turn too soon from poor people into tycoons
Corruption must bring horrors
South African Vorster resign in disgrace
Mozambique take where Ian Smith place
The Uganda devil was easy leak
And Springer beaten up and chased
What a waste
Gary is a wanted man
Patrick John is a wanted man
The Shah of Iran fighting hard to survive
He too is wanted dead or alive
The Shah have a short time to live
Because the Ayatollah don't forgive
When you see church ruling state
With pure vengeance and hate
Situation must be explosive
General Somoza from Nicaragua
Thought it was easy with the Sandinista
With the help of Venezuela, Panama and Cuba
They kick him straight to America
Gary is a wanted man
Bokassa is a wanted man
Ali Buto tried so hard to survive
He too was wanted dead or alive
The median mongoose was bad and so brave
They send the old bishop straight to his grave
After that well Gary skip town
With the diary in Ethiopia gone
No more people to enslave
Trinidad neighbors all expecting mayhem
Anytime anything could happen to them
Eric Williams taking a back seat to avoid bacchanal
But everybody know he afraid Carl
Gary is a wanted man
Park Chung-hee was a wanted man
Achim Pong fight so hard to survive
He too was wanted dead or alive
