lyrics

Yeah, yeah!

C'mon!

Shots were fired from the shore
And the Red Star sailed back out to sea
Was it him or was it her,
How can you be sure that it wasn't me?

Kiss, kiss!

Bang, bang!

Your hero from the war was mysteriously delayed
They killed you with a single bullet…now you're the soviet JFK

Chorus:
They say it was is a Kraganovich from the Central Committee
He's a fucking kulak that wants to get his land for free
On the political stage he's like a human locomotive
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch…what's his motive?

Just about!

To find out!

What we're all about!

In the darkened hallway a man with a gun hides in the dark
A Bolshevik with a briefcase he didn't get very far
Everyone remembers who they were with and where they went that day
But whenever I ask you, you've got nothing to say

Oh my god! You're the Menshevik from the Central Committee
You're the fucking Social Democratic that wants have a revolution blood-free
On the political stage you're like a tap-dancing locomotive
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch…what's your motive?

Welcome comrades to the first congress of the communist party on the International space station
We have invited you here spend your Subotnick on this interplanetary worker's vacation
And now that you've had you had your fill of champagne and caviar in your new private space car
I would like to listen to an address the first Intergalactic Red Czar:

'We want all of you always to be dressed in the latest couture…
But to live like we live you've got to want to always be poor!

No More..champaign! No more..cavier! No more…private space cars! No more living like a Czar! You can kill me but you can't kill an electric guitar!"

Yeah that's right, I'm the fucking peasant in the Central Committee
An anarchist yr midst that wants to set our country free!
On the political stage I'm a time bomb shaped like a locomotive!
Yeah I'm sick of you and all with your twisted, corrupt motives
All your human sex traffic, and your drug addicts…you're the one who killed Kirov so you can live like a Czar…
But you cant kill our 'lectic guitars!
