Lenin

When Lenin was little All the birds in the forest were singing "Man, this is it!" But 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 Were look down at the leaves fallin' off the trees
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 own judgment Daddy, Daddy, please send me a heart that isn't 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
