Russians (encore la guerre froide)

In Europe and America, there's a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too

How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy
There is no monopoly in common sense
On either side of the political fence
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the President
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us, me, and you
Is if the Russians love their children too

Oeuvre très belle de ces deux artistes, je pense aussi à l'arrangeur car il y a là une très belle idée

Hi Bernard !
The Russians love their children, too – They want them to grow up in a great country that the rest of the world fears.
This sentence is repeated several times. Aren't Americans, Europeans, Russians the same ! They want peace for themselves and their family.
I knew the song but hadn't paid much attention to the words.
What do you think ? Anything to add ?

Oui mais c'est bien vieux tout ça maintenant. La réciproque est vraie pour les pays de l'ouest qui à l'époque faisaient de même...!
Lit bien la fin car il dit "croyez moi si vous voulez sauver vos enfants...."
