Lyrics Russian Roulette - John Cale

Russian Roulette

The Russian bear is hungry
He’s dancing in his chains
And the trainer is melancholy
Feeling hard and grey, okay
And he will have to dig
For miles underground of soil
If, if not for Frenchmen
Dizzy from turning their backs
On everyone’s story
And everybody’s disgust
Everybody’s distrust
Distrust, disgust
Well, behind the sanitary napkin beauty
That oozes out of each and every song
He harnesses the blood bank soul
The creatures that belong
Hey, John Wayne, he can feel no pain
'Cause he’s got no brain
He’s riding horses to Apocalypse and back
Just like a crosseyed Paul McCartney
Like another crosseyed Paul McCartney
For hard-judged creatures that belong above the
That material safety ain’t a safety found in numbers
But they’re never getting slumber
And they’re never getting zoned
And the getting’s all gone
, beauty comes last
Safety first and beauty comes last
Safety first 'cause spiteful caravan goes last
Antique caravan goes last
Well, Delilah is your
Samson’s shorn and hoarse
With fifty caliber bullets
For the in the human race
Japan, Japan, Japan, we love you
They carve you like Californian turkey
Feed to hungry missiles sucking
The moist vagina of the world
Leave it
And Russia is defecting
Russia, Russia is defecting
Russia is defected, is defective
Is defecting, is defecting, is defecting
What’s wrong with the motherland
What’s wrong with the fatherland
Here comes the China Ku Klux Klan
And elect black Communists surgeons
In case you need them
Elect Communist surgeons
Elect black Communist surgeons
Elect black Communist surgeons in case
In case you need them
If it rains, if it rains
When it rains
It never rains on the Russian Party
Rains
If it rains, if it rains
If it rains on the Communist Party
If it rains, if it rains, if it rains on the Communist Party
