communist love song |
It was well conceived in theory |
But it doesn’t work in life |
Comrade has to wonder |
Is it ever worth the effort? |
Well I don’t know but I’ve been told |
Not to hang on to my hope |
Well I don’t know but I’ve been told |
And I’ve been listening all my life |
If you’re ever less than certain about the world |
Please don’t let the worry make its way into your work |
And if you would stick up for me in the face of some adversity |
Know that I would only do the same |
Cuz it was well conceived in theory |
But it doesn’t work in life |
And me I will not write it off |
Not ever having tried |
Well I don’t know but I’ve told |
Not to hang on to my hope |
Well I don’t know but I’ve told but |
These are lies and they get old |
So look me in the eyes under expanding winter skies |
You’ll find a feeling there that never knows the cold |
Look me in the eyes and the skeptic in me dies |
The skeptic is a fool |
We are exceptions to the rule |
Cuz this is our land |
This is our land |
I will cross it holding your hand |
From Kursk to Moscow we will not be turned away |
This is our land |
This is our land |
I will cross it holding your hand |
In crooked streets of Petersburg |
We are all the same |
So if you’re ever less than certain about the world |
Please don’t let the worry make its way into your work |
And if you would stick up for me in the face of great adversity |
Know that I would do the same |
Know we are the same |
If you would stick up for me |
Speak kindly and poetically |
You can be my personal ambassador to the world |
And if you’re ever less than certain |
I will be your Iron Curtain |
I will be your Berlin Wall |
And I will never fall |
