Bourgeoisie Blues - Alabama 3

Comrades People of the world We ain't got nothing to lose but the godd**n bourgeoisie blues Mr I V Lenin the Lenin of Love gonna make us feel so fine
With a hit of Socialism in the mainline
Bourgeois parliamentarianism
No way
The highest state of society
Third World debt
First World exploitation
D**n
What a society we're living in
You're right I V
Selling Third World d**gs at First World prices
They say Lenin was wrong
Who says
That's right
It's enough to give me the f**king blues
I know you're searchin' for some new sensation
'Cos I saw you with the Sugarman
You took a taste of that sweet salvation
Now you're eating out the palm of his hand
You hear some line from a song that reminds you
Of the time when you were seventeen
The memory moves you but you feel kind of confused
'Cos now money is your melody
Looks like
Temptation got a hold on you
She's eating away at your dreams
You're so hungry for that smell of money
You've been wasting away for years
Yeah you been tempted brother
You been tempted sister too
Hear you were hustling with some heavy connections
Hooked up on those dollars and dimes
You were looking for thrills and dressed up to kill
Any motherf**ker messing with your goldmine
But now you you walk the line trying to buy yourself time
With some honey-backed guarantee
But the bees they are buzzing and the flies they are humming
Round the holes in your hypocrisy
Looks like
Temptation got a hold on you
She's eating away at your dreams
You're so hungry for that smell of money
You've been wasting away for years
Temptation got a hold on you
She's eating away at your dreams
You're so hungry for that smell of money
You've been wasting away for years
Waste away now
What do we want
Bolshevik provisional government
And what kind of power
Soviet power
It's enough to give me the f**king blues
Socialism straight in the mainline
Socialism straight in the mainline
See you wastin' away now
