Komrade Kiev lyrics

I watch the paper every day
They drink the same cup of tea
I read the t.v. everyday
They deal the same cards for me
I turn my head now to the left
And see the marx upon your face
I turn my head now to the right
See the darkness of your light
I didn t see the flag you raised
Through the glory that we praised
There s a child that stands amazed
At the craziness we ve paved
And the sun will shine through winter time
And I pray the rain will someday end the flame
Chorus:
Shoot komrade Kiev
That s what they say to me
Shoot komrade Kiev
Shoot komrade Kiev
That s what they re telling me
Shoot komrade Kiev
And through the pride and prejudice
You blind the truth you couldn t miss
For the target you have drawn
Won t bite the hand that cuts the arm
And when the story s finally told
That each man s heart was bought and sold
There was no enemy you see
Only the doubt in you and me
I know the sun will shine thru winter time
I pray the rain may someday end the flame
Chorus
I ve walked through mother Russia
In the cold of winter time
And I ve seen
Every mountain that each man wants to climb
But I know -
Farewell to arms
That one day the sun will shine - o
Shoot komrade Kiev!
