Talking Camila Vallejo Warning – Restricted Education Leads To Modern-Day Slavery

Unfair systems of education are there all over the earth.
They are driven by the old and the dangerous.
And the young are there too all over the earth –
most of them need free education.
I‘m a-talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
Yes, I am talking Camila Vallejo Warning.

In Chile the students are fighting for their future.
A marathon-protest of ten thousands is takin‘ to the streets.
There are expensive private universities, expensive private schools.
Thousands of dollars you have to pay: The dollars you don‘t have!
I‘m a-talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
Yes, I am talking Camila Vallejo Warning.

Camila Vallejo takes a stand for the students.
The world knows her and she‘s talking warning.
Five years of study and fifty years of debt-payment
means future fear, poverty, slavery and a free world only for the rich.
I‘m a-talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
Yes, I am talking Camila Vallejo Warning.

Modern-day slavery comes through restricted education.
The modern-day slave is the undereducated, underpayed or not at all payed worker.
The rich want cheap working hands and costly education, controlled by them,
for the rich help the rich, want to keep the intelligent poor out of power.
I‘m a-talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
Yes, I am talking Camila Vallejo Warning.

Camila Vallejo is warning hard-line politos
that violence is rising if they show no mercy,
no understanding.
I say, intelligence and love are God‘s freedom gifts
for all humanity.
That‘s why education must be free everywhere
for humanity to unfold.
I‘m a-talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
Yes, I am talking Camila Vallejo Warning.
