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 the 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 looking down at the leaves falling 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 judgement Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart that isn't made of cement Because the money's all been spent Daddy, daddy, please spare the world from the government Daddy, daddy, please spare my soul from my own judgement Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart hat isn't made of cement Because the money's all been spent The money's all been spent
