Leninist Lullaby Lyrics

Stuck in Moscow, 1917

Dreaming of all that might have been

Before the world wakes up, sing me a song

Of CIA killed by Viet Cong

It was angels that sent to hell all Romanovs

I want a hymn for the Red Army Gods

One for old Ilyich and Krupskaya

A new spark to ignite the old fire

Embrace revenge, or lives as thankless chore

I won't settle for less anymore

She said

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Till the world awakes to watch it rise

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Till the world awakes sing me a Leninist Lullaby

Under my eyelids I watch the old ways die

Whether in Consumer City or Nowhere Town

All the best pubs have been closed down

Everywhere's sold its heart and lost its soul

To pamper wankers in palatial homes

We're DiCaprio and Winslet sharing the plank

It's about fucking time that their ship sank

Last night I saw my hero's grave

Laid a rose for all the lessons they gave

What do you say to your best ever teacher

All I can think of is spasiba

El Pepe said you gotta learn to lose

But I've had too much telesales blues

You're either born into a necklace or a noose

These are capital's ironclad rules

If you believe the media, believe the news

You'd think workers have no power to choose

Your cries for help need not be ignored

They say it can't be done but it has been before

By Vlad and the lads in the days of yore

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Until the world awakes to watch it rise

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Until the world awakes sing me a Leninist Lullaby

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Until the world awakes to watch it rise

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Until the world awakes

I love you to the moon and the stars

Let's resurrect the USSR

The red sun forever shines for you and I

Until the world awakes sing me a Leninist Lullaby
