Lyrics Lenin - Arcade Fire

Lenin

When Lenin was little
All the birds in the forest were singing «man this is it»
Now that he’s older
All the sailors in heaven are singing 'Abandon ship'
I know it can’t be right
I know it can’t be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I said
In my head
When Lenin was little
Dressed up like a vampire on All Hallow’s Eve
All the saints up in heaven
Looking down at the leaves falling off the tree
I know it can’t be right
I know it can’t be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I said
Daddy daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy daddy, please spare my soul
From my own judgment
Daddy daddy, please send me a heart
That isn’t made of cement
Cause the money’s all been spent
Daddy daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy daddy, please spare my soul
From my judgment
Daddy daddy, please send me a heart
That is made of cement
Cause the money’s all been spent
The money’s all been spent
The money’s all been spent
The money’s all been spent
