If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - Manic Street Preachers

 Tema fascinante cuyo título toma prestado el lema de un cartel propagandístico del bando republicano de la Guerra Civil española y cuya temática algo desesperanzadora respecto a la complacencia y las injusticias marcó a toda una generación. 

Tiene un estribillo mítico de esos que se graban a fuego en tu memoría y te satisfacen cada vez que lo escuchas.

Quizás sea el tema más reconocido de la banda galesa de rock alternativo y fue un éxito en todo el mundo allá por el año 1998.

Espero que os guste

  

The future teaches you to be alone
The present to be afraid and cold
So if I can shoot rabbits
Then I can shoot fascists
Bullets for your brain today
But we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
Turns me into a gutless wonder

And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next

Gravity keeps my head down
Or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain?
Holes in your head today
But I'm a pacifist
I've walked Las Ramblas
But not with real intent

And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next

And on the street tonight, an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days

And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this, then your children will be next
Will be next, will be next, will be next
